SUSA ( SHUSH )

PERSIA the ANCIENT IRAN



Susa: شوش also called Shushan , Greek Susiane , modern Shush, capital of Elam (Susiana) and administrative capital of the Achaemenian king Darius I the great and his successors from 522 BC. Susa is one of the oldest cities in the world. Excavations have established that people were living at the acropolis in 5000 BCE. This gallery contains images of the Royal Hill (Apadana Palace).

The right computer expert working with an archeologist could reconstruct the whole area in 3d virtual reality and the user could move all around inside and out. That's what history preservation people would do if they knew what to do.

Sometimes I wish I could go back in time and see how a place like this realy looked like, probably magnificent just by looking at these coloumns and statues...

What a desolate place. It makes you wonder what made the ancients choose it for a city.

Amazing history! Persia(today Iran) is a caradle of civilization.
