NORUZ vs NEW YEAR

NORUZ from Kamalolmolk
On NORUZ,if you pay attention to correct spelling according to transliteration rules,this is the day our forefathers,either Kiomars or Jamshid founf or discovered  the life of human being ,possibly thru fire,so connotation of a short time, as in a day is important in this myth.Like in case of Yalda that we have discussed ,these mythology and feast were borrowed later by younger cultures with some modification such as turning DAY to Year , and New Year instead of New Day=NORUZ.
