The Faravahar depicts a man arising from a disk flanked by wings wide spread. It has been frequently accepted as the attribute of Zoroastrianism back the nineteenth century, when the term "Faravaharв" was first applied to it. However, the Zoroastrians have been using the symbol for more than 2000 years. Some non-Zoroastrian Persians (i.e. Iranians) aswell use the attribute as a representation of national pride.
