It was celebrated as a time of renewal\, light defeating darkness\, and life overcoming death\, marking the end of winter. \nNowruz was observed by the kings of the Achaemenid Empire (c. 550–330 BCE)\, who received gifts from their subjects on this day. Persepolis\, the empire's ceremonial capital\, contains stone carvings showing people bringing offerings\, likely for Nowruz. \nOver centuries\, Nowruz spread beyond Persia to regions across Western Asia\, Central Asia\, the Caucasus\, and parts of South Asia and Eastern Europe\, especially along ancient trade routes like the Silk Road. \nAfter the spread of Islam\, Nowruz survived in many regions\, with some Islamic rulers even promoting it as a day for charity and goodwill. \nIn Uzbekistan and other Central Asian countries\, Nowruz became a symbol of national identity and cultural heritage\, especially after the fall of the Soviet Union.
