The music is nice, isn't it?The site's certainly very polished, and I'd like to see more completed (especially the Alexander bit, of course). All the bestMarcus

Too bad Persepolis

Post by beausefaless »

As someone once said, the burning of Persepolis petrified the reminisce from antiquity. And if there's any consolation, later on Alexander felt some remorse for allowing himself to be caught up in the moment, sort of speak. Dear Persepolis, Just think of your destruction as urban renew in it's crudest form so everyone from the future can observe how great you are to be standing after Alexander's wrath from so long ago, mostly gone but not forgotten. No doubt, one of the negatives of Alexander.
