Kelashin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Coordinates: 36°54′N, 44°53′E Kelashin (also spelled: Kelishin, Kel-a-Shin, Kel-a Shin, meaning "blue holy stone" in Kurdish) is a mountain village in northern Iraq, near the Kelashin Pass (2,981m) to Iran, some 80 km south-west of Lake Urmia.

The Kelashin Stele found there bears an important Urartian-Assyrian bilingual text dating to ca. 800 BC.
