<b>Palangina</b> (<span title="Persian-language text"><span lang="fa" dir="rtl">پلنگینه</span></span>) is the name of a suit that <a href="/wiki/Rostam" title="Rostam">Rostam</a>, the legendary <a href="/wiki/Greater_Iran" title="Greater Iran">Iranian</a> hero wore in wars. The suit had a number of <a href="/wiki/Preternatural" title="Preternatural">preternatural</a> features. It was invulnerable against fire, water and weapon. Its color was dark and apparently it was hairy. <a href="/wiki/Rostam" title="Rostam">Rostam</a>, before going to battle, wore three levels of defensive suits: he first put on a <a href="/wiki/Body_armor" title="Body armor">zereh</a>, then a <i>gabr</i> or <i><a href="/wiki/Mail_(armour)" class="mw-redirect" title="Mail (armour)">jowshan</a></i>, and lastly the Babr-e Bayan. According to some verses in <a href="/wiki/Shahnameh" title="Shahnameh">Shahnameh</a>, Babr-e Bayan had been made out of the skin of a <a href="/wiki/Leopard" title="Leopard">leopard</a> (the name Palangineh refers to this). This account is also mentioned in some <a href="/wiki/Sogdian_language" title="Sogdian language">Sogdian</a> texts. According to <a href="/wiki/Faramarznameh" class="mw-redirect" title="Faramarznameh">Faramarznameh</a>, after the death of Rostam, the suit was passed to his son, <a href="/wiki/Faramarz" title="Faramarz">Faramarz</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-iranica_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-iranica-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The story of the armor is part of the five interpolated tales in Shahnameh that demonstrated the extent of Rostam's popularity.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Etymology">Etymology</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Babr-e_Bayan&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Etymology"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The name Babr-e Bayan consists of two components. Babr, the first component, simply means <a href="/wiki/Tiger" title="Tiger">tiger</a> in Middle Persian. Bayan, the second component, is not a Persian word and its origin is uncertain. There are several suggestions for this but none of them are convincing. Some sources referred to the reference to tiger skin (Babre bayan) as a suit that denoted power, influence, and authority.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The Shahnameh does not provide any explanation as to the origin of the armor. However, there are several sources that do provide such information. For instance, one account explains that, when Rostam was 14 years old, he killed a dragon known as Babr-e Bayan in <a href="/wiki/India" title="India">India</a>. The dragon lived in the sea, only emerging from it on one day a week. When Rostam killed the creature, he made a suit for himself out of its skin. There are accounts similar to this in other Persian epic poems.<sup id="cite_ref-iranica_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-iranica-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> These are also corroborated by certain other sources such as an oral version recorded by a German scholar in the 19th century and the prose versions recorded in the collection of <i>tumar</i> (scrolls) that appeared during the <a href="/wiki/Qajar_dynasty" title="Qajar dynasty">Qajar period</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Another suggestion is that Bayan is the name of a city, most probably <a
