Livius Picture Archive: Persian gate (Yasuj) |
 | | Without any problems, Alexander crossed the river Marun (the border of Elam and Persis) and reached the plain north of modern Yasuj, which is seen here from the northeast. |
 | | However, the satrap of Persia, Ariobarzanes, was aware of the movements of the Macedonians and had taken countermeasures. |
 | | During my third visit to Yasuj, in May 2005, I had the honor to meet professor Abuzar Hemati, a linguist from the local university. |
