Barm-e Delak

The archaeological complex contains three panels with two Sasanian rock reliefs carved into the mountain, positioned 6.5 meters above ground level.

European travelers documented the site since the 17th century, including Tavernier between 1632 and 1665 and Kaempfer in 1685 who provided early records.

The main relief depicts a scene where a figure presents a flower to a woman, with dimensions of 2.1 meters in height and 2.6 meters in width.

The site stands 10 kilometers southeast of Shiraz, occupying an area of 2 hectares with partial public access for visitors and researchers.

A damaged Pahlavi inscription remains visible beneath the male figure's arm in the larger relief, adding epigraphic value to this archaeological treasure.
