埃克巴坦那

埃克巴坦那（Hegmataneh）考古遗址位于伊朗西北部。这座古城在近3千年内一直有人居住，为米底文明提供了重要而稀有的公元前7-6世纪证据。此后，埃克巴坦那还是阿契美尼德帝国、塞琉古帝国、安息帝国、萨珊王朝的夏都。

The archaeological remains of ancient Hegmataneh are located in northwestern Iran. Continuously inhabited for nearly three millennia, Hegmataneh provides important and rare evidence of the Medes civilization in the 7th and 6th centuries BCE and later served as a summer capital of Achaemenid, Seleucid, Parthian, and Sasanian rulers.
