Rznmag (HAM) This short hemerology is found in the Admonitions of durbd to his son.

1 It is not found in the Arabic translation of the HAM in the Jvn Xrad nor in the Persian rendering of Drb Phlan, which leads one to support that it may be a separate text.2

. HAM 119-149 (Pahlavi Texts, 69-71; K 27, 3v-5 v). H.W. Bailey compares it with a Khotanese text : Hedin 17.19. ttraiv mia sta u vyihra padma u bahya kera on the third day fields must be tended and dwellings (vihra) built and trees planted. With this text can be compared the four kinds of similar work in a Zoroastrian text: On the day of Spandrmat cultivate the earth, on the day of Haurdt dig channels, on the day of Amurdt plant trees and fruit-trees on the day of Vahrm lay the foundation of house and home. Here the three genii Spandrmat, Haurdt, and Amurdt are in their appropriate roles for the earth, waters, and plants. Iranian mia, Indian bja, BSOAS, 1957, 32-33. 2 . E.W. West said: Le paragraphe du milieu du passage ci-dessus, qui dtaille les actions convenables pour chaque jour du mois, est souvent appel Haqqat-i Rzh ou dtermination des jours. Il a un peu lapparence dune interpolation, comme les dterminations ont fort peu de liaison avec le contenu des phrases qui prcdent et suivent ; mais les manuscrits nindiquent aucune division du text. Notes sur quelques petits textes Pehlevis, Le muson, 1887, 272.
