This ancient cave is near the town of Divandarreh in the western Kurdestan province. There is a tablet written in Greek above the portal of a room in the third floor. Thats why it has been mentioned as the Hercules temple.

The tablet reads: therein resides Hercules and no evil can penetrate it.

Those are great finds dear Cyrus,
Wonderful ones, I imagined if there are some temple pictures of Darius 1,2 and 3 and Cyrus the great, if so I would be glad if you share them.
