Lohrasp was not really the king of Iran; he ruled only part of Iran and was the head of his great tribes. The land he occupied is calledArzan or Arzāniān, and his whereabouts are still unknown. In fact, his sonGoshtāsep and his grandsonEsfandiyār are very famous. The character of the Lohraspian dynasty is God-worshiping, and it was by his son that theZoroastrian religion was adopted in Iran.
Lohrasp was involved in theKay Khosrow war but was not very famous.Zāl in his argument describes a weak and powerless person. Kay Khosrow was great during the war, but after all his victories, he broke once and closed all the doors of the palace and worshiped all the time. Shahnameh reports that Kay Khosrow chose Lohrasp but is not very trusted. Lohrasp is the other land and is very far from the Kay Khosrow . In the reign, Lohrasp only quarreled with his son Gushtasp, and Gushtasp intended to take his father's place, but the father would not allow it. Finally, Gushtasp goes toRûm.
