en-wikipedia-org-7304		Xerxes I inscription at Van - Wikipedia			.html	text/html	1508	167	68	Inscription of Xerxes the Great near the Van Fortress, written in Old Persian, Elamite and Babylonian Could it have been connected with the many battles he fought in this region following the seizure of the throne?"[8] Lori Khatchadourian (2016) states that the spot was specifically chosen to show that the area was now part of another power.[4] By placing the inscription at the fortress of Tushpa (i.e. the Van Fortress), in the center of the former entity of Urartu, Darius and Xerxes "were making a claim on the former foundations of authority that had long prevailed in the region", now remade as a province of the Achaemenid Empire.[4]	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-7304.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-7304.txt
