Ganj-e Badavard

Ganj-e Badavard (New Persian: گنچ باداورد Ganǰ-i Bādāward, literally "the treasure brought by the wind") was the name of one of the legendary eight treasures of the Sasanian king Khosrow II (r. 591-628) according to the majority of Persian sources.[1] According to the Shahnameh, however, it was also the treasure of the legendary Kayanid king Kay Khosrow.[1]
