Through Persepolis

The Sasanian Empire produced a massive quantity of large outdoor rock reliefs prior to its collapse. Combined with the royal court's strict monopoly over the craft, these factors made rock relief carving a unique royal and Iranian tradition. Pars contained most Sasanian rock reliefs, particularly in areas surrounding Persepolis.
