Thraetaona (Avestan) Freton (Pahlavi) Feraydun (Persian) [from Avestan thrae trice + taona potent] The Avestan fire god possibly connected in meaning with Traitana or (Trita in the Hindu Vedas), or the son of the waters, in India generally called Apam Napat and stated to be born from the cloud through the lightning. He slew the dreadful serpent Azhi Dahaka in the four-cornered Varena (the heavens) -- Feraydun (Thraetaona) with his three sons versus Azhi Dahaka with three heads. In the Vendidad (20) he is described as the first healer. Blavatsky calls Thraetaona the Persian Michael, and equates Apam Napat with fohat. Another meaning of Feraydun is the sphere of the fixed stars (the light spheres). See also AZHI DAHAKA; ZOHAK . .
