Excavations Unearthing Ancient City of Ecbatana - Hamedan, Iran
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the ongoing archaeological excavation of the 9th century BC Median city of Ecbatana in Hamedan, Iran. Located just a few blocks away from the bustling city center, this historical site is an incredible testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this region. In the image, we see a large vault under construction as it prepares to retract metallic tubes used in uncovering hidden treasures beneath. The unearthing process began in the 1990s and has since revealed fascinating remnants from ancient civilizations such as Parthian and Medes. Ecbatana's significance lies not only in its age but also its strategic location along the Silk Road, connecting Asia with Europe. Designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this incomplete yet famous place attracts travelers seeking to immerse themselves in Iranian culture and explore its glorious past. The photograph showcases a stunning facade that hints at the grandeur of this once-thriving city. Its underground secrets continue to be unveiled through meticulous archaeology work, offering us glimpses into an empire long gone but never forgotten. German Vogel's expert photography skillfully captures both the architectural beauty and historical importance of Ecbatana. This print serves as a reminder that travel can be more than just vacations; it can be an opportunity for discovery and appreciation of our shared human history.
