Known as one of the last Zoroastrian dynasties to exist prior to the Islamic Iranian dynasties, the Qarinvand Dynasty ruled parts of the Tabaristan highlands (https://www.academia.edu/98820824/The_Dabuyid_Ispahbads_and_the_Early_Abbasid_Governors_of_Tabaristan_History_and_Numismatics) in today’s northern Iran (https://www.alfusaic.net/countries-101/iran). Tabaristan was ruled by the Dabuyid (https://www.alfusaic.net/civilizations-101/dabuyid) Dynasty through Dabuyid Ispahbads. As one of two Dabuyid vassal kingdoms, the other being Bavand (https://www.alfusaic.net/civilizations-101/bavand), the Qarinvand Dynasty ruled from the 550s until the 11th-century, persisting even after the Abbasids (https://www.alfusaic.net/civilizations-101/abbasid) defeated the Dabuyid ruler and annexed Tabaristan. Little is known about Tabaristan’s history under the Dabuyid Ispahbads (https://www.academia.edu/98820824/The_Dabuyid_Ispahbads_and_the_Early_Abbasid_Governors_of_Tabaristan_History_and_Numismatics), especially the Qarinvand Dynasty. Nevertheless, its history can be understood through linked dynasties including the Bavand, Abbasid, and Dabuyid dynasties. Thank you to Courtney Blankenship for this article.

Civilization in Review: Dabuyid Dynasty
The Dabuyid Dynasty (https://jhistory.um.ac.ir/article_26333.html), otherwise known as the Gaubarid Dynasty, was an Iranian (https://www.alfusaic.net/countries-101/iran) Zoroastrian Dynasty ruled by a group of independent kings, called Ispahbads (https://www.jstor.org/stable/43580501). Most of what is known about the Dabuyid Dynasty is from the later historian Ibn Isfandiyar’s Tarikh-I Tabaristan, written in the 13th Century. Although the dynasty was founded by Gil Gavbara (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gil_Gavbara) in 642 CE, it was named after his son, Dabuya, who controlled the kingdom after his father’s death. Dabuyid rule extended over Tabaristan (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabaristan) and western Khorasan (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_Khorasan) until the Abbasid (https://www.alfusaic.net/civilizations-101/abbasid) conquest in 760. The dynasty ended with the suicide of Khurshid (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khurshid_of_Tabaristan) after a surprise invasion by the Abbasid Caliphate.
