The Seven Great Monarchies Of The Ancient Eastern World, Vol 5. (of 7): Persia

CHAPTER V
34/92

The accompanying illustration [PLATE XLVII., Fig.

1.], which is taken from a photograph, exhibits this inner pair in their present condition.

The back of one of the other pair is also visible.

Two of the pillars--which alone are still standings appear in their places, intervening between the front and the back gateway.
[Illustration: PLATE XLVII.] The walls which enclosed this chamber, notwithstanding their immense thickness, have almost entirely disappeared.

On the southern side alone, where there seems to have been a third doorway, unornamented, are there any traces of them.
