The Night of Xerxex - By: Babak A. Tafreshi
Stars of Cassiopeia, Perseus, and the Pleiades Star Cluster (the Seven Sisters) are photographed above 2500-year old Persian giant stone-graved tomb of Xerxes, a king of the Achaemenid empire, about 2500 years ago. The nearly 8-storey high stone-graved tomb is located at Naqsh-e Rostam along with several other similar tombs made into the rock of the mountain, near Persepolis, southern Iran.
