people who inhabited the region in the 9th century BME. With the rise of the Palatinate, it became known as Pishahn. After the conquest of Saloyan by Junda and Chelidt in the 1st century, it was renamed Mashan or Mashann. This remained its official name for centuries, though local people continued to use the old name. In the 10th century it was officially renamed Pishan, since that's what most people called it anyway.
