Haurvatat
Haurvatat (') is the Avestan language word for the Zoroastrian concept of "wholeness" or "perfection." In post-Gathic Zoroastrianism, Haurvatat was the Amesha Spenta associated with water (''cf.'' ''apo''), prosperity, and health. Etymologically, Avestan ''haurvatat'' derives from an Indo-Iranian root and is linguistically related to Vedic Sanskrit ''sarvatāt'' "intactness, perfection". The Indo-Iranian root has in turn Indo-European origins. In Common Era Zoroastrian tradition, Haurvatat appears as Middle Persian ''Hordad'', continuing in New Persian as ''Khordad''. The Iranian civil calendar of 1925, which adopted Zoroastrian calendar month names, has ''Khordad'' as the name of the 3rd month of the year. The Avestan language noun ''haurvatat'' is grammatically feminine and in scripture the divinity Haurvatat is a female entity. However, in tradition (K)Hordad was/is considered male; this development is attributed to the loss of grammatical gender in Middle Persian. In ''Isis and Osiris'' 46, Plutarch translates Haurvatat as Πλοῦτος ''ploutos'' "wealth, riches" and equates the divinity with "Plutus," the Greek god of riches. ==Scripture==
