    I don't have high hopes, but I'll see if I can get some usable literature from my uni library.

    Turned out I could get quite a lot of literature, actually. Among them 2 books that were to fragile (both printed in the 19th century) to take along, so I skimped them through on the spot. I took 2 books with me, one is in German so tough for me
    I'll let you know if I find something useful for your descriptions, when I'm done with these 2 I'll head back for more.

    Our language expert has moved on, and we're looking to provide English translations to some of our native names in this faction. Take a shot at some of these:

    Atarsh Dadgah Anahita
    Adurgah Anahita
    Atarsh Adaran Anahita
    Atarsh Ohrmizd Anahita
    Atarsh Vahram Anahita

    Thanks! Your offer to help is appreciated.

    These writings are old scripts ,right ,But "no one talks like that now" is not quite true and not the only reason we hardly can identify them.Another reason is ,when foreigners deal with a persian word ,sometimes they pronounce it in the same way they can ,and even worse ,they write it down like that."Zoroaster the great" for instance ,We know he is the same well known Aryan prophet ,but if you find a simple ancient Iranian (For example a farmer) who is not aware of other languages and thier differences ,and ask him "Who is Zoroaster (Or Zoroastra)?" ,I'm pretty sure he says "I don't know" ,Because simply he doesn't call him "Zoroaster" he calls him "Zardosht".

    EB team ,I'm still looking for the meaning of "Adurgah"(Don't worry ,you wrote it correctly) ,Hope to find it soon.

    Bedrood everyone and Savar e Parsi (Persian horseman)
