Called Derafsh Kaviani, it is the mythological and historical flag of Iran until the end of the Sassanid dynasty, which according to Ferdowsi's narration in the Shahnameh, this flag emerged with the uprising of Kaveh the Blacksmith against the tyrannical king Zahak and the beginning of the Fereydon's kingdom and Pishdadian dynasty.
The word Kaveh is written in the canton of the flag referring to the legendary hero Kaveh the Blacksmith from the old Iranian epic poem "Shahnameh" who lead a rebellion against Zahak.
This flag was standardised during the constitutional monarchy era, but the main flag elements were unchanged and described in the Iranian supplementary fundamental laws of 7 October 1907.
