Some customs of present Iranians, like Norouz ceremony and Haft-sin,
Chaharshanbe-suri, the customs of Arafe/Alafe on the last night of the
year, Yalda and some other ceremonies, has been retained from the
ancient Iran. Zoroastrians of Iran have preserved these ancient customs
more than other groups, so the consideration and deliberation of
Zoroastrian ceremonies will help us to analyze the Iranian ceremonies
as a whole. However, the contemporary Zoroastrian rituals, in some
respects, differ from the rituals and customs mentioned in middle
Persian texts. Moreover, these rituals are not the same in all Zoroastrian
regions of Iran (i.e., Kerman, Yazd and etc). In this paper, the common
customs of present Zoroastrians and the important elements of their
rituals are studied, so we can survey the development of their customs
and make a comparison between them.
