A nail inscription found in the Chaypara fortress, which dates back to the Urartu period 2700 years ago, was donated to the city’s cultural heritage by a philanthropist.
Discovering the historical inscription, Hussein Ahmadzadeh told reporters in Ordibehesht Maki today that the inscription was of great importance in archeological research, adding:
He added: “Chaipara Fortress is located 10 km west of Qara Ziyaeddin and is the center of Chaipara County and south of the Maki Free Trade Zone. It was the second largest settlement of Urartu culture.”
Ahmadzadeh added: “This work was found in the excavations on the White River wall, and it seems that this historical work was directed to this area by a flood.”
The discoverer of this historical work added: “People should be aware of the importance of preserving historical works with historical identity documents, and cultural heritage managers should do more to revive, preserve and promote these works to the world.”
This work is considered to be the second inscription of Chaypara fortress.
