Abstract
Abstract This article investigates the theme, known from two passages of Pahlavi literature (Šāyist nē Šāyist 13.43 and Dēnkard 9.22.1), of the multiple comings of the deities Dahmān Āfrīn and Srōš to the world at night in order to give it increase. The article highlights that this theme reflects some characteristics of the Dahmā Āfriti prayer (which Dahmān Āfrīn personifies), and of the deity Sraoša (of whom Srōš is the equivalent) according to the Avestan tradition. Furthermore, the article highlights that this theme also reflects certain characteristics of the Dahmā Āfriti and of Srōš, as well as of the deity Dahmān Āfrīn, in the Zoroastrian tradition of the Sasanian to early Islamic times. The article analyzes these characteristics, and proposes some considerations on the relationship between Dahmān Āfrīn and Srōš. It also points out that a connection between Dahmān Āfrīn and Srōš is preserved in modern and contemporary Zoroastrian rituals.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
