Hvare.khshaeta (', ') is the Avestan language name of the Zoroastrian divinity of the "Radiant Sun." Avestan ''Hvare khshaeta'' is a compound in which ''hvar'' "Sun" has ''khshaeta'' "radiant" as a stock epithet. Avestan ''hvar'' derives from the Indo-Iranian root '' *svar'' "to shine," from which Vedic Sanskrit ''Surya'' — again "Sun" — also derives. In Middle Persian, ''Hvare khshaeta'' was contracted to ''Khwarshēd'', continuing in New Persian as ''Khurshēd''/''Khorshīd.'' (''cf.'' a similar contraction of Avestan ''Yima khshaeta'' as ''Jamshid''). The short seven-verse 6th ''Yasht'' is dedicated to Hvare-khshaeta, as is also the Avesta's litany to the Sun. The 11th day of the Zoroastrian calendar is dedicated to and is under the protection of Hvare-khshaeta. Although in tradition Hvare-khshaeta would eventually be eclipsed by Mithra as the divinity of the Sun (this is attributed to "late" syncretic influences, perhaps to a conflation with Akkadian Shamash), in scripture the Sun is still unambiguously the domain of Hvare-khshaeta and remains distinct from the divinity of "Covenant."
