In early Persian text, the Simorg was depicted as a mixture of peacock, griffon and lion and symbolized the union of heaven and earth. Its feathers were known to heal deep wounds with no more than a touch, as well as purify the land and water, bringing fertility with medicine and rebirth. The Simorg was said to reside in the all-healing tree of knowledge.
