'Magoi'. The Latin name is 'magus', plural 'magi'. The Latin has been transliterated into English, although some biblical translations say 'wise men'.
Strictly speaking, the Magoi were a Median tribe that provided priest for the the other west Iranian tribes, including the Parsis. The west Iranians brought a primitive version of the proto-Indo-Iranian religion from their earlier homeland on the Russian steppes. At this stage, the Magoi were priests of the old religion.
Zoroastrianism, derived from the same proto-Indo-Iranian religion, came later into the eastern regions and eventually spread into western Iran. The Magoi or 'magi' continued as priests for Zoroastrianism.
