Note 133 — Chapter IV · GENESIS OF THE EARLY MOHAMMADAN PALACE
Reading edition
Dieulafoy, op. cit., vol. ii, Plate 14 and vol. iv, Plate 15. Possibly there are earlier examples of the ṭâqchah than those at Persepolis. Room 11 in the big house in the Merkes at Babylon would seem from the plan to have possessed a ṭâqchah. Koldewey, Das wieder erstehende Babylon, Fig. 236.
