The House of Ispahbudhan or the House of Aspahbadh was one of the seven Parthian clans of the Sasanian Empire. Like the Sasanians, they claimed descent from the Achaemenid dynasty.[2] They also claimed descent from the legendary Kayanid figure Isfandiyar,[3] who was the son of Vishtaspa, who according to Zoroastrian sources was one of Zoroaster's early followers.[4]
