Date/Time and Place of an Event Note:

Ernst Herzfeld first visited Persepolis in November 1905 during his expedition return from the Assur (Kalat Schergat, Iraq) excavation. During the two last months of 1923 as well as early March 1924, he spent six weeks on the terrace of Persepolis, drafting a plan and providing a photographic record of the whole structure. In 1928, the architect Friedrich Krefter joined Herzfeld in Persia, in an expedition funded by the Notgemeinschaft der Deutschen Wissenschaft, to complete various measured plans and drawings of the site. Excavations were begun on March 1, 1931, now under the auspices of the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago. Ernst Herzfeld left Persepolis permanently in Spring 1934.

Scope and Contents:

Additional information from Corpus Inscriptionum Iranicarum; Part I, Inscriptions of Ancient Iran; Vol. I, The Old Persian Inscriptions reads, "The architectural activities in Persepolis started soon after 519 B.C. ...and continued until Alexander's arrival in 330 B.C.. The structures -and hence the cuneiform inscriptions- of Persepolis were thus created in the space of nearly two hundred years. The original approach to the Persepolis platform was from the south, but Xerxes blocked that entry when he finished the north-western stairway. Not far from the original southern stairway, Darius the Great had carved, on a single block, four cuneiform texts (DPd and DPe in Old Persian, DPf in Elamite, and DPg in Babylonian). These serve as the 'foundation inscriptions' of Persepolis." [Corpus Inscriptionum Iranicarum; Part I, Inscriptions of Ancient Iran; Vol. I, The Old Persian Inscriptions; Portfolio I: Plates i-xlviii. Old Persian Inscriptions of the Persepolis platform. Edited by A. Shapur Shahbazi. Published by Lund Humphries, London, 1985. Pp.15-16."]

Date/Time and Place of an Event Note:

Ernst Herzfeld first visited Persepolis in November 1905 during his expedition return from the Assur (Kalat Schergat, Iraq) excavation. During the two last months of 1923 as well as early March 1924, He spent six weeks on the terrace of Persepolis, drafting a plan and providing a photographic record of the whole structure. In 1928, the architect Friedrich Krefter joined Herzfeld in Persia, in an expedition funded by the Notgemeinschaft der Deutschen Wissenschaft, to complete various measured plans and drawings in Persepolis. Excavations were begun on March 1, 1931, now under the auspices of the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago. Ernst Herzfeld left Persepolis permanently in Spring 1934.
