The House of Spandiyadh (also spelled Spendiad and Isfandiyar) was one of the seven great houses of the Sasanian Empire. Like the House of Mihran, their seat laid at Ray, which made the German scholar Theodor Nöldeke suggest that they may have been the same family. Like most of the other seven great houses, the House of Spandiyadh was of Parthian origin. The family claimed descent from the legendary Kayanid figure Isfandiyar, who was the son of the Vishtaspa, who according to Zoroastrian sources was one of Zoroaster's early followers.
