Zarathustra by Fereydoun Rostam is a free cuneiform-inspired display font with stark, wedge-shaped strokes. Its letters combine long hairline diagonals with dense triangular marks, forming open, angular shapes with a deliberately uneven cadence.
Museums, history publishers, and cultural events can use it to suggest ancient inscriptions without copying a conventional serif style. It is especially suited to exhibition posters, book covers, and educational graphics, where the lettering can establish an archaeological theme as part of the editorial identity.
