Lurestan Historical Graveyards

Cheshmak Graveyard, Pol-e-Dokhtar
This Graveyard is located in the narrow valley of Cheshmak in a vicinity known as Michaku, and is related to the Parthian era. The graves are in rows, in a north-south direction and at a distance of 4 to 5 m. from each other. Each grave is 4.5 to 5m. in length, and 1.5 m. in width. The tomb-stones lean towards each other in the shape of tip of an arrow. On the hillock designed earthenware has been found, but those discovered from the graves are related to the Parthians. This graveyard is in a state of turmoil due to the search for treasure there.
