The rock tomb of Fakhrigah (or Faghragha) () lies 15 km to the northeast of Mahabad, in West Azerbaijan Province, western Iran. The tomb is carved into the face of a rocky outcrop. It is located along the Mahabad−Miandoab Road south of the village of Inderghash, in the Iranian Kurdistan region. ==Archaeological history== In 1936 Aurel Stein, a British archaeologist and explorer wrote about the tomb and defensive constructions further along, and Wolfram Kleiss prepared sketches of the tombs. In 1896 Jacques de Morgan made an overall plan, including the precise detail of the inside of the tomb and columns, with a copy of the inscriptions already mentioned by Rawlinson, which he subsequently published. C.F.Leman, an explorer whose main purpose during his travels was to carry out research into the Armenian people, measured the tomb a with precision. Hertzfeld, relying on these sketches, prepared plans and sketches which were also reliable and were used as a basis in all subsequent rock studies. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fakhrigah」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
