Re: What does it mean???
I don't think this would apply. Indo-iranian is not even close to Japanese. Western Civilization doesn't apply to Japan either.Originally posted by The_Great_Tonge:

This appears to be an arabic/oriental religeon. I can't even figure out why this came up in a western civilization class.
on a side note...."ANGRA" is also the name of one of my favorite bands.

I don't doubt that there could be a Mazda god in mythology I'm just not totally sure that's what our Mazda comes from.....but it could be I guess.

Re: What does it mean???
"god of light!" *eh hem!! "god of light!"
atleast thas what i read on some mazda history site.. so you're not entirely wrong because the Japanese dudes who made our cars probably knew about dis too. ANYWAYZ what about autozam or eunos?? i've only found that "eunos" was just another name for the miatas/mx-5's, but they sold mx-3's and others? lol
