Tombs of Darius I, Artaxerxes I and Darius II

Naqsh-e Rostam / نقش رست

The tomb on the right has been identified as the tomb of Darius I, the Great (522-486 BC). The other two are believed to be of Artaxerxes I (465-424 BC) and Darius II (423-404 BC).
Unfortunately, the tombs were looted following the conquest of the Achaemenid Empire by Alexander the Great.
