Image title | Naqsh-e Rustam (Persian:
رستم Naqš-e Rostam) is an ancient necropolis located about 12 km northwest of Persepolis, in Pars Province, Iran. It lies a few hundred meters from Naqsh-e Rajab. The oldest relief at Naqsh-i Rustam is severely damaged and dates to c. 1000 BC. It depicts a faint image of a man with unusual head-gear and is thought to be Elamite in origin. The depiction is part of a larger mural, most of which was removed at the command of Bahram II. The man with the unusual cap gives the site its name, Naqsh-e Rostam, "Picture of Rostam", because the relief was locally believed to be a depiction of the mythical hero Rostam. Four tombs belonging to Achaemenid kings are carved out of the rock face. They are all at a considerable height above the ground. The tombs are known locally as the 'Persian crosses', after the shape of the facades of the tombs. The entrance to each tomb is at the center of each cross, which opens onto to a small chamber, where the king lay in a sarcophagus. The horizontal beam of each of the tomb's facades is believed to be a replica of the entrance of the palace at Persepolis. One of the tombs is explicitly identified by an accompanying inscription to be the tomb of Darius I the Great (c. 522-486 BC). The other three tombs are believed to be those of Xerxes I (c. 486-465 BC), Artaxerxes I (c. 465-424 BC), and Darius II (c. 423-404 BC) respectively. A fifth unfinished one might be that of Artaxerxes III, who reigned at the longest two years, but is more likely that of Darius III (c. 336-330 BC), last of the Achaemenid dynasts. The tombs were looted following the conquest of the Achaemenid Empire by Alexander the Great. Naqsh-e Rostam (también conocido como Naqš-i Rustam, en persa mod. نقش رستم Naqš-i Rustam [næqʃe ɾostæm]) es un sitio arqueológico situado a unos 3 km al noroeste de Persépolis, en la provincia de Fars en Irán. Este emplazamiento es llamado Næqš-e Rostæm "el retrato de Rostam", porque los persas pensaban que los bajorrelieves sasánidas bajo las tumbas representaban a Rostam, un héroe mitológico persa. Es una pared rocosa que contiene cuatro tumbas reales aqueménidas rupestres, cruciformes y con bajorrelieves. Una de éstas, según las inscripciones que presenta, sería la tumba de Darío I. Las otras tres tumbas que se encuentran a los lados de la de Darío I, serían las de Jerjes I, Artajerjes I y Darío II pero no llevan ninguna inscripción que permita identificarlas con certeza. En la montaña de detrás de Persépolis hay otras dos tumbas semejantes, pertenecientes probablemente a Artajerjes II y Artajerjes III, lo mismo que una tumba inacabada que podría ser la de Arsés, o más seguramente de Darío III, el último rey de la dinastía aqueménida, que fue derrocado por Alejandro Magno. La tumba de Darío es uno de los dos modelos de tumbas que existieron en el arte persa del periodo aqueménida. Se trata de una tumba excavada en roca como los hipogeos egipcios. El otro modelo es el de la tumba de Ciro en Pasargadas. Hay también siete grandes bajorrelieves en la roca de Naqsh-e Rustam, bajo las tumbas, esculturas mandadas por los reyes sasánidas. Frente a la roca se encuentra Ka'ba-i-Zartosht, un monumento zoroástrico. En la extremidad del sitio se encuentran dos pequeños altares de fuego. |
