““These were all composed in a language known as Old Avestan, which is similar in syntax, meter, and vocabulary to the Old Indic of the Rig Veda, an early Hindu text. The Ahuna Vairya is still recited as one of the daily prayers of Zoroastrians today, in a language that is thought to be over three millennia old.””
