    This file is a synthetic, approximate reading of the Old Persian text. As you listen:

    • A chime and the phrase “This part is missing or unreadable”: this part of the inscription is lost or unreadable, and no definite reading is available.
    • The phrase “Possible reconstructed reading”: what follows is a proposed reading of a reconstructed section and is not certain.
    • Pauses between sections: these separate parts of the reading; the length of a pause does not indicate the number of missing words.

    Historical pronunciation needs scholarly review. To understand the text’s meaning, read the translation provided on this page.
