In the ancient Zoroastrian texts known as the Gathas, the Daevas are characterized as 'wrong gods,' 'false gods,' or 'gods that are rejected.' These interpretations are subject to variations in the old Persian Daeva inscriptions dating back to the 5th century BCE. The Daevas, also referred to as Divs, are depicted as noxious creatures that propagate chaos and disorder. Over time, in later traditions and folklore, the Divs evolve into personifications of all imaginable evils, representing malevolent forces in various forms.
