Mother earth
According to ancient Iranian mythology, the human race has its origins in what plant? Rhubarab (rivas): "Gayômart succumbed to his injuries and passed away, while his sperm was in two parts purified by the rays of the sun and entrusted for safe-keeping to the deity Nêryôsang and in one part fell upon the earth and was received by Spandârmad, his creator and mother. His seed remained for forty years in the earth, out of which slowly grew the rhubarb plant, the stem of which developed into the first human couple, Mašîa and Mašîânag, the progenitors of all human races, the ten species of mankind that inhabit the Xwanîrah, the central continent of the earth..." -- Mansour Shaki, "GAYÔMART" (Q-Mars) The Protoplast of Man
