“The splendor of the city continued until the mid centuries of the Islamic era in Iran,” said Shahram Zare’, who is the director of a team tasked to demarcate the city.
“There are at least three intact mud-brick castles depicting the transition of techniques and style of the Sassanid architecture to the periods that came afterwards,” Zare’ added.
The project officials previously rejected a proposal to relocate the highway in their plan. They argued that the modification would cost too much.
The project will not be carried out after a rescue excavation is done at the site, Zare’ said.
“The project officials should provide the Cultural Heritage, Tourism and Handicrafts Organization with the necessary funds for the rescue excavation,” he noted.
Darzin is located 20 kilometers west of the city of Bam, in Kerman Province.
