The tomb of Emperor Cyaxares - Qyzqapan (HD)

Cyaxares the Great (625--585 BC), the son of King Phraortes, was the first king of Media. According to Herodotus, Cyaxares, grandson of Diyako, had a far greater military reputation than his father or grandfather, therefore he is often being described as the first offical Median King. ''Qyzqapan'' is located in Syromedia, and is the last resting place of Cyaxares the Great, according to Igor Diakonov. Qyzqapan is today an archaeological site in Silemani (Kurdistan Region). The construction of the tomb, begun after the death of Cyaxares the Great. The tomb contains Zoroastrian symbols, since the Medes had an Ancient Iranian Religion (a form of pre-Zoroastrian Mazdaism or Mithra worshipping) with a priesthood named as "Magi". Later and during the reigns of last Median kings the reforms of Zarathustra spread in northwestern Iran, (mainly the modern Kurdish parts). Music: Şehram Nazirî - Lerzan (Vibration)
