What the last search found

Historical records such as the Cyrus Cylinder and the Book of Ezra attribute the decree to rebuild the Jerusalem temple directly to King Cyrus II, with no historical text linking the command to Zoroaster. Outside mainstream endorsement: Certain pan-Iranian historical traditions attribute the state policy of Achaemenid rulers directly to the prophetic directives of Zoroaster.
