Looks very informative, I'm going to have to explore it!<br />By all means use some f the material from my Rostam post for your Shahnameh one. I'd like to see your final version of that too!<br />By the way can you read Farsi? It's a shame how some of the historical structures have been defaced with graffiti stating gibberish (such as Hi mom!)....Raminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08283428526665235779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139029899357162669.post-86749404351822712522010-08-02T01:16:22.603-07:002010-08-02T01:16:22.603-07:00Hi Ramin

But I have seen the date range from the late 16th century through 1632. Are you saying that the 1596 date is correct? In most sources that I have seen, they seem to suggest the 1625-32 date range. Although another explanation could be the date was converted from an Islamic lunar calendar rather than the Persian calendar, hence the difference. In the early 17th century they were about 40 years apart.<br />I suppose you could subscrbe to my blog via the follow button to be notified of new posts. I wasn't able to access your blog; it just gave me a blank page. I'd be interested to read what you have about the Safavid history.Raminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08283428526665235779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139029899357162669.post-58151517235849934682010-07-29T02:05:03.343-07:002010-07-29T02:05:03.343-07:00I should have given you my email in case you want ...I should have given you my email in case you want to contact me - since I see you dont seem to have a system for notifying commenting responders of track-backs (tho the verify system is very good - I may borrow this idea).<br />I'm on caroline@carolinemawer.com<br />Best wishes<br />Carolinecarolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11345632824072524692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139029899357162669.post-86242102821422391362010-07-29T02:01:11.298-07:002010-07-29T02:01:11.298-07:00Dear Ramin.
