Farangis is a character in Persian epic Shahnameh. She is daughter of Afrasiab, king of Turan, and later marries prince Siyavash of Iran. Their son is the legendary hero and later Shah of Iran, Kai Khosrow. Although a Turanian by birth, Farangis shows loyalty to her husband's kingdom and dynasty. She accompanies her son when he leaves Turan in hope of gathering an Iranian army to avenge Siyavash.^{[citation needed]}
