Also, it is assumed that the Median king whom Herodotus's reports are about is the same Deioces, Phraortes' father; thus, it is not possible to clarify the exact date of the period of his rule; but it can be said that it probably covered most of the first half of the 7th century BC[2] Igor Diakonoff says: "The state of the era of Deioces' reign in Herodotus's writings is so different from the picture of that time (745-675 BC) described by the Assyrian sources that some historians have rejected Herodotus's statement."[6] The city which Deioces chose for it was called Hagmatāna in Old Persian and Ecbatana in Greek language, considered to be Hamadan today.[12] Ecbatana means "the gathering place" or "a city for everyone"[16] and indicates the gathering of Median clans, which had been disunited before.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-1122.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-1122.txt
