ai generated text

The parasang, also known as a farsakh, is an historical Iranian unit of walking distance that varied according to terrain and speed of travel, equivalent to approximately 3 to 3.5 miles or 6 km. The term was used throughout the Middle East in antiquity and appears in various forms in later Iranian languages as well as in Greek, Latin, Hebrew, Armenian, Georgian, Syriac, Turkish, and Arabic. The length of the parasang has been documented as varying between 21 and 60 stadia, and even the earliest surviving mentions of the parasang by Herodotus and Xenophon give different lengths.learn more on wikipedia
