Asset Overview
This is an ancient carved Marble stone from Hamadan Stone museum located in Heart of the Hamadan inside the heritage site of the Hegmataneh ancient city. I used about 30 photos to make this.
Ecbatana (/ɛkˈbætənə/; Old Persian: 𐏃𐎥𐎶𐎫𐎠𐎴 Hagmatāna or Haŋmatāna,[1] literally "the place of gathering", Elamite: 𒀝𒈠𒁕𒈾 Ag-ma-da-na Middle Persian: 𐭠𐭧𐭬𐭲𐭠𐭭 and Parthian: 𐭀𐭇𐭌𐭕𐭍 Ahmadān, Aramaic: אַחְמְתָא Aḥmeta, Ancient Greek: Ἀγβάτανα in Aeschylus and Herodotus,Ἐκβάτανα, Akkadian: 𒆳𒀀𒃵𒋫𒉡 kura-gam-ta-nu in the Nabonidus Chronicle) was an ancient city in Media in western Iran. It is believed that Ecbatana is in Hagmatana Hill (Tappe-ye Hagmatāna), an archaeological mound in Hamedan.
