Abstract:In Iranian mythology, we rarely find the name of Wekard. In the few remaining texts from pre-Islamic Iran, it is briefly mentioned that he was Houshang's brother and the founder of agriculture, which was also called Pishdadi. In Islamic texts, although he is mentioned as a prophet, there is not much news about him. But Abu Rihan al-Biruni is one of the few writers who has paid more attention to his life and his character that based on some theories suggested about his name, origin, duties and his relationship with social classes. Abu Rihan al-Biruni by equating dehghani and writing, has considered the dehghani as the dignity of the Dibiris class and has considered the star of Mercury to be the special star of writers and dehghani. However, in this article it has been tried to introduce Dehghans and to examine their role in transmitting the culture and literature of ancient Iran to the Islamic era and their relationship with the Debirs, as well as to the educated class of Iranian society. In addition, by analyzesing the role and position of Wekard in ancient times, we try to find out the causes of the anonymity of this mythical character.

Wayukht The Anonymous Founder of Agriculture and Leader of the Peasant Class 1 Fatemeh Jahanpour* Abstract In Iranian mythology, we find little trace of Wayukht, and in the few remaining texts from pre-Islamic Iran, it has been briefly mentioned that he is the brother of Hushang and the founder of agriculture, who also held a pre-dynastic title.
In Islamic texts, although he is mentioned as a prophet, there is not much news about him, and Abu Rayhan al-Biruni may be one of the few writers who has paid somewhat more extensive attention to this character and provided the basis for presenting hypotheses regarding him, his origins, duties, and his relationship * Master's degree in Ancient Iranian Culture and Languages.
This article aims, while examining the status of the peasant class and their role in transmitting the culture and literature of ancient Iran to the Islamic era and their relationship with the scribe class and the intellectual layer of Iranian society, to analyze the role of Wayukht and his position, so that perhaps through this path, the reasons for the anonymity of this mythological character can be discovered.
This attachment and interest of the dehqans in preserving past history, boasting of Iranian kings, and striving to narrate and repeat a tale of Iran's glorious past caused the word dehqan to gradually come to mean an individual equivalent to a scholar, historian, preserver, and transmitter of ancient narratives and myths in the Persian language lexicon (Khalaf Tabrizi, 1380: 405; Anjushayri, 1359: 2171; Dehkhoda, 1377: 11317), and the dehqans, alongside jurists, literati, and poets (al-Tha'alibi, 1983: 187), shaped the Iranian learned society, and the language of the dehqan became synonymous with the Persian language, just as in Arabic cultures, great orators have been addressed with the expression "دهاقين الکلام" (Futuhi Rudmu'jani, quoting Ibn Rashiq al-Qayrawani, 1397: 34).
