is a city in the Central District of Kohgiluyeh County, Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad province, Iran, serving as capital of both the county and the district.
== Etymology == The name "Dehdasht" (Persian: دهدشت) is derived from two Persian words: ده (deh), meaning "village," and دشت (dasht), meaning "plain" or "field." The term deh has its roots in Old Persian, where it referred to a rural settlement or village, while dasht denotes an expanse of land suitable for agriculture. This combination reflects the geographical and cultural significance of the area as a village situated in a fertile plain, highlighting its agricultural heritage.The word deh itself has evolved through various stages of the Persian language, originating from Middle Persian dahigān, which referred to farmers or villagers, and is related to the broader concept of rural life in Iran. The suffix -dasht is commonly used in Persian to describe flat lands or fields, indicating the agricultural character of the region surrounding Dehdasht.
