The Sallarid dynasty (Persian: سالاریان), (also known as the Musafirids or Langarids) was a Muslim dynasty of Daylami origin, which ruled in Tarom, Samiran, Daylam, Gilan and subsequently Azerbaijan, Arran, and some districts in Eastern Armenia in the 2nd half of the 10th century.[1] They constitute part of the period in history that has been named the Iranian Intermezzo,[2] a period that saw the rise of native Iranian dynasties during the 9th to the 11th centuries.
