在伊拉克的古代帕提亞/波斯城市

AI overview

Ctesiphon was an ancient city located on the Tigris River in what is now Iraq, about 22 miles southeast of Baghdad, that served as a royal capital for Iranian empires for over 800 years during the Parthian and Sasanian periods. It matters historically because it functioned as the administrative center of the powerful Sasanian Empire from 226 until its conquest by Arab forces in the 630s-650s AD.
