اشکانیان

Gōsāns were artists who narrated stories through poetry and music in the streets and neighborhoods. They served as guardians of Iran’s epic tales and passed them down to the Sasanian era. The Gōsāns’ tradition of recounting epic narratives was a rich one—especially among the storytellers of Khorasan, who benefited from both the cultural diversity and religious freedoms of the Kushan and Parthian periods in the East.
