In Iranian Studies [I], BSOS vi (1933), 945 ff., I commented briefly`upon a text of the Bahman Yašt (Vahman yašt or yasn), in which certain ethnical names occurred. It was desired then chiefly to point out the name of the Karmīr xyōn “Red Chionitae” beside the Spēt xyōn “White Chionitae”, and the forms of the name of Sogdiana. I did not, however, succeed in interpreting the whole passage satisfactorily, and after ten years I venture once more to call attention to it. To the bibliography given in BSOS vi 9451 should add here the edition of the Bahman Yašt by Anklesaria, The Zand-î Vohûman Yasn 1919 (which came into my hands after I had written the'paper); B. N. Dhabhar, The Persian Rivayats of Hormazyar Framarz, 1932, which contains on p. 465 a translation of the Parsi-Persian text to be found in M. R. Unvala's. Dârâb Hormazyâr's Rivâyat ii 91 (1932); Markwart, Provincial Cities of Eranshahr, p. 69.
