Dara is one of the most famous kings of the semi-historical Kayanian dynasty. In Iranian narratives and post-Islamic historical sources, his character and life story have been equated with those of Darius III, the Achaemenid king. Some similarities—such as the shared name of Darius III’s father (Vistasp or Goshtasp, the Kayanian patron of Zoroaster) and his defeat by Alexander the Great—played a significant role in this conflation. Iranian traditions and historical sources came to believe that this war was, in fact, Alexander’s battle against the last king of the Kayanian dynasty, Dara, son of Dara. The main question in this research is: To what extent does Hakim Nezami’s narration of Dara’s story align with Iranian traditions and historical sources, and how much poetic modification has the poet introduced into the original tale? The findings of this study indicate that Nezami, in recounting Dara’s story, mostly adheres to Iranian narratives, though in some instances, he employs poetic imagination and literary contemplation to introduce alterations.
