Abstract Throughout their long and rich history, the Iranian people have created marvellous monuments of material and spiritual culture and made a big contribution to the progress of world civilization.
A very important place in Iran’s history belongs to the Achaemenid period, when, after the establishment of the Achaemenid State 25 centuries ago, firm foundations of Iranian statehood and culture were laid. This period played an important role in the historical and cultural development of many other countries, which were part of the Achaemenid State.
