The world is shifting and mounting on a high rate, the results being a reduction and diminution in spaces, unification of the sub-cultures, the omnipresence of visual world and an inescapable elimination of the “roots”. Therefore it seems a necessity to provide an answer to the ever-perplexing question of essence, quiddity and “identity” with a retrospective outlook towards the past and a survey through the present. One of the preliminary factors required for a full understanding of the ancient identity is an excavation in the inner world of collective unconscious which is imbedded in the culture, history and the literature of the ancient people. Keshm Jangnameh, doubtless constitutes one of these signs. The text that has been investigated in this paper is a verse epic written by an anonymous local author at an approximate date in the 11th century. Using content analysis as the methodology, this study reveals the significant presence of a national-Iranian structure in the mindset of the local warriors and inhabitants of the Keshm region. When confronting a new context the structure has been re-figured and updated and in a combination with elements of identity such as religion, language and the motherland the structure has been converted to a supportive feature for other identities.
