Ecbatana (/ɛkˈbætənə/; Old Persian:𐏃𐎥𐎶𐎫𐎠𐎴Haŋgmatāna, literally "the place of gathering", Ancient Greek: Ἀγβάτανα in Aeschylus and Herodotus, elsewhere Ἐκβάτανα, Agámtanu by Nabonidos, and Agamatanu at Behistun) was an ancient city in Media in western Iran. It is believed that Ecbatana is in Tell Hagmatana (Tappe-ye Hagmatāna), near Hamedan. but the history of the city is controversial.
Excavations at Kaboutar Ahang have revealed stone age tools and pottery from 1400 to 1200 BC. According to Herodotus, Ecbatana was chosen as the Medes' capital in the late 8th century BC by Deioces. Under the Persian kings, Ecbatana, situated at the foot of Mount Alvand, became a summer residence. Later, it became the capital of the Parthian kings, at which time it became their main mint, producing drachm, tetradrachm, and assorted bronze denominations. It is also mentioned in the Hebrew Bible (Ezra 6.2) under the name Achmetha (also spelled Ahmetha, e.g. JTS Bible).
Hamadān or Hamedān (Persian:همدان, Hamadān) (Old Persian: Haŋgmetana, Ecbatana) is the capital city of Hamadan Province of Iran. At the 2006 census, its population was 473,149, in 127,812 families.
Hamadan is believed to be among the oldest Iranian cities and one of the oldest in the world. It is possible that it was occupied by the Assyrians in 1100 BCE; the Ancient Greek historian, Herodotus, states that it was the capital of the Medes, around 700 BCE.
Hamadan has a green mountainous area in the foothills of the 3,574-meter Alvand Mountain, in the midwest part of Iran. The city is 1,850 meters above sea level.
The special nature of this old city and its historic sites attract tourists during the summer to this city, located approximately 360 kilometres (220 miles) southwest of Tehran.
The main symbols of this city are the Ganj Nameh inscription, the Avicenna monument and the Baba Taher monument.
The majority of the population is Persian; however, there is a considerable Azerbaijani minority.
Banu Hamdan is a well known Yemeni clan since the 1st millennium BCE, it was mentioned in Sabaic inscriptions as qayls of Hashid, who later acquired control over a part of Bakil and finally gave their clan name to a tribal confederation including Hashid and Bakil.
Hamdan branches
Hashid and Bakil
Today still in the same ancient tribal form in Yemen Hashid and Bakil of Hamdan remained in the highlands North of Sana'a between Marib and Hajjah.
Banu Yam
Banu Yam settled to the North of Bakil in Najran (today in Saudi Arabia). It also branched into the tribes: the Al Murrah and the 'Ujman of eastern Saudi Arabia and the Persian Gulf coast.
Banu Kathir
Banu Kathir from Hadramut in the East of Yemen where they established their own sultanate.
Banu Al-Mashrouki
Banu Al-Mashrouki settled in Lebanon producing well known Maronite influential families such as the Awwad, Massa'ad, Al-Sema'ani, Hasroun.
Banu Al Harith remained in Jabal Amil and were mainly Shia. A smaller group joined the Yemeni Druze and were eventually pushed by KaysiDruze to Jabal Al Druze in Syria.

However, if there were no recent structures and modern constructions in this area, the size of the hill would have still been more than 40 hectares.
Regarding the researches over Hegmataneh Hill, it seems that the constructions on this hill were made in 17th century BC. when the Medes Empire of Aryan Tribe first moved to the Persia. Therefore, Hegmataneh was the capital city of the first Iranian kings and emperors. The recent excavations have brought many findings, priceless to the people who know the value of them.

Therefore, Hegmataneh was the capital city of the first Iranian kings and emperors. The recent excavations have brought many findings, priceless to the people who know the value of them. What is left now in Hegmataneh is way too different from how it used to look like back in time. However, that does not change the truth about its real nature. The walls of this ancient city used to have gold and silver coatings. There were several other luxury things to make one of the most initial civilizations as mighty as possible. Herodotus, the first Greek historian (425-485 BC.) and famous as the Father of History, believed that the Medes chose Hegmataneh Hill as their capital city about 800 BC. According to him, the constructors and architects of this historical city had built a royal complex containing a castle, treasury, and a cantonment. Then they constructed 7 concentric walls around the complex. One interesting point is that the name of Hegmataneh was engraved on a stone from King Darius the Great in three ancient Persian languages. Some interpreters believe that the meaning of this word is a place where people gather together.
There are many opinions and interpretations about the exact construction date of Hegmataneh Complex and the purpose of the structure. Nevertheless, the artistic architecture of this ancient complex is what seems admirable to all groups. The architects have built this structure like seven interconnected and labyrinth-like complex. The innermost castle is believed to be the king’s castle while the outer ones are supposed to be used for other usages. Median people built their houses around the construction as the king of the time wanted his people to be living near him. Another ancient Greek historian believed that the castle had wood, gold, and silver in its structure. He also believed that there were many beautiful engravings and decorations on the doors, arches, and columns. The researches and excavations have revealed the admiring advanced water system of Hegmataneh Complex. The designers of this system have built the water channels with a 3 meter and a half-width. In addition, the houses in Hegmataneh Complex are built in a parallel and symmetrical way which is another wonder of this complex.

IRAN/Hamadan/ Location: 34°48′23″N 48°30′58″E
Hegmataneh Complex is located on a vast hill which was once called Hegmataneh Hill. Hegmataneh is the largest hill from ancient times in Iran. The estimations indicate that the size of the hill is about 30 hectares. However, if there were no recent structures and modern constructions in this area, the size of the hill would have still been more than 40 hectares.
Regarding the researches over Hegmataneh Hill, it seems that the constructions on this hill were made in 17th century BC. when the Medes Empire of Aryan Tribe first moved to the Persia. Therefore, Hegmataneh was the capital city of the first Iranian kings and emperors. The recent excavations have brought many findings, priceless to the people who know the value of them. What is left now in Hegmataneh is way too different from how it used to look like back in time. However, that does not change the truth about its real nature. The walls of this ancient city used to have gold and silver coatings. There were several other luxury things to make one of the most initial civilizations as mighty as possible. Herodotus, the first Greek historian (425-485 BC.) and famous as the Father of History, believed that the Medes chose Hegmataneh Hill as their capital city about 800 BC. According to him, the constructors and architects of this historical city had built a royal complex containing a castle, treasury, and a cantonment. Then they constructed 7 concentric walls around the complex. One interesting point is that the name of Hegmataneh was engraved on a stone from King Darius the Great in three ancient Persian languages. Some interpreters believe that the meaning of this word is a place where people gather together.
There are many opinions and interpretations about the exact construction date of Hegmataneh Complex and the purpose of the structure. Nevertheless, the artistic architecture of this ancient complex is what seems admirable to all groups. The architects have built this structure like seven interconnected and labyrinth-like complex. The innermost castle is believed to be the king’s castle while the outer ones are supposed to be used for other usages. Median people built their houses around the construction as the king of the time wanted his people to be living near him. Another ancient Greek historian believed that the castle had wood, gold, and silver in its structure. He also believed that there were many beautiful engravings and decorations on the doors, arches, and columns. The researches and excavations have revealed the admiring advanced water system of Hegmataneh Complex. The designers of this system have built the water channels with a 3 meter and a half-width. In addition, the houses in Hegmataneh Complex are built in a parallel and symmetrical way which is another wonder of this complex.
Ecbatana (/ɛkˈbætənə/; Old Persian:𐏃𐎥𐎶𐎫𐎠𐎴Haŋgmatāna, literally "the place of gathering", Ancient Greek: Ἀγβάτανα in Aeschylus and Herodotus, elsewhere Ἐκβάτανα, Agámtanu by Nabonidos, and Agamatanu at Behistun) was an ancient city in Media in western Iran. It is believed that Ecbatana is in Tell Hagmatana (Tappe-ye Hagmatāna), near Hamedan. but the history of the city is controversial.
Excavations at Kaboutar Ahang have revealed stone age tools and pottery from 1400 to 1200 BC. According to Herodotus, Ecbatana was chosen as the Medes' capital in the late 8th century BC by Deioces. Under the Persian kings, Ecbatana, situated at the foot of Mount Alvand, became a summer residence. Later, it became the capital of the Parthian kings, at which time it became their main mint, producing drachm, tetradrachm, and assorted bronze denominations. It is also mentioned in the Hebrew Bible (Ezra 6.2) under the name Achmetha (also spelled Ahmetha, e.g. JTS Bible).
