About photo number 10 There are several achaemenid royal inscriptions in the PALACE OF DARYOUSH in PERSEPOLIS. The pillar in the photo number 10, which is the east pillar of the southern portico of Darius' palace This column must have carried the roof of the entrance hall. The inscription was added by xerxes Translations into Elamite and Babylonian can be seen below the first Old Persian text. And its translated in English : *A great god is Ahuramazda, who created this world, who created yonder sky, who created mankind, who created happiness for mankind, who made xerxes king. One king for many, one leader of many. I am Xerxes, the great king, the king of kings, the king all kinds of people with all kinds of origins, king of this world great and wide, the son of king Darius, the Achaemenid. The great king Xerxes says: By the grace of Ahuramazda, my father, king Darius built this palace. May Ahuramazda together with the gods protect me, and what I built, and what was built by my father, king Darius. May*
