mrscanada - Jan, 25 2007 09:01pm This a very unique picture. zrusseff - Nov, 13 2007 01:11pm Bagher, is this site open to the public? Is this a result of an archaeology dig or was it alway open like this? Thanks. Great photograph! Very educational. shervin19 - Dec, 02 2008 11:12am The two completed Tombs behind Takhti Jamshid would then belong to Artaxerxes II and Artaxerxes III. The unfinished one is perhaps that of Arses of Persia, who reigned at the longest two years, or, if not his, then that of Darius III (Codomannus), who is one of those whose bodies are said to have been brought "to the Persians." shervin19 - Aug, 22 2011 04:08am Zellah, yes It's open to the public but you must walk about 5 min. When you see the persepolis you need to about 3 hours.
