Talk:Naqsh-e Rustam
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Why is this term transliterated as "Naksh" instead of "Naqsh" or "Naghsh"? There is no such a Persian word. Any ideas? --Smalek 17:40, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

Artaxerxes in the Bible " I am Darius the Great King, King of Kings, King of countries containing all kinds of men"
Compare that with Ezra 7:12 which Artaxerxes wrote. He was from the same dynasty of Darius and ruled after him.
Ezra 7:12 Now this is the copy of the letter that the king Artaxerxes gave unto Ezra the priest. Artaxerxes, king of kings, unto Ezra the priest, a scribe of the law of the God of heaven, perfect peace, and at such a time.
[edit] Merger
If someone wants to make a case that Persian cross should remain a separate article, that's okay with me. But if it does remain separate, one thing is essential—that it be mentioned in this article, and linked to from here. The two articles need to be coordinated if they are to remain separate; but it would be better and simpler just to have a redirect from "Persian cross" (and from "Persian Cross" or "Persian Crosses", since it appears to be used as a proper name).
