Persepolis Recreated
Sunday, April 13
Achaemenid Persia occupies an important place among the great civilizations of the ancient world. In 550 bc, Cyrus laid the foundation of the largest empire the world had ever seen, built on a model of tolerance and respect for other cultures and religions. In order to govern their vast empire, the Achaemenid kings established four capital cities: Babylon, Susa, Ecbatana, and the most magnificent of them, Parsa or Persepolis, which was known in its day as the “richest city under the sun.”
