介绍（中）	阿契美尼德时期的不朽艺术和建筑最好的例证是波斯波利斯遗址，这是帝国的大型礼仪首都，最初由大流士一世（公元前521年至486年在位）建造，并由他的继任者扩建。波斯波利斯位于伊朗西南部法尔斯省设拉子西北30英里处。在那里，像百柱大厅和大流士和薛西斯的王座室这样的建筑展示了阿契美尼德建筑的特点——大型方形房间，其天花板由许多柱子支撑。王座室中的一些柱子已经重建，高超过六十五英尺阿契美尼德雕塑最具特色的是用低浮雕雕刻的石板，用来装饰通往仪式建筑的各个楼梯。波斯波利斯几座宫殿楼梯的墙上挂着数百名波斯和米德兰交替的仆人，他们为皇家盛宴带来食物和饮料。这个浮雕片段描绘了一个波斯登上楼梯，在托盘上拿着一个沉重的水皮或葡萄酒皮。在他前面的台阶上是一个武装的中间人，手里拿着一艘有盖的船。皮肤容器的形式以及人物的大小和风格表明，浮雕源自阿尔塔薛西斯三世（公元前358年至338年在位）时期，装饰着修复后的大流士宫或H宫。
介绍（英）	The monumental art and architecture of the Achaemenid period are best exemplified by the ruins of Persepolis, the large ceremonial capital of the empire originally built by Darius I (r. 521–486 B.C.) and expanded by his successors. Persepolis is located thirty miles northwest of Shiraz in the southwest Iranian province of Fars. There, structures like the Hall of One Hundred Columns and the Throne Room of Darius and Xerxes exhibit features characteristic of Achaemenid architecture—large square rooms, the ceilings of which are supported by many columns. Some of the columns in the Throne Room have been reconstructed and stand more than sixty-five feet high. Most characteristic of Achaemenid sculpture are the slabs carved in low relief that decorate the various stairways leading to the ceremonial buildings. Representations of hundreds of alternating Persian and Median servants bringing food and drink for a royal feast are on the walls of several palace stairways at Persepolis. This relief fragment depicts a Persian mounting a stairway and holding a heavy water- or wineskin on a tray. Ahead of him on the top step is an armed Median holding a covered vessel. The form of the skin container and the size and style of the figures suggest that the relief derives from the time of Artaxerxes III (r. 358–338 B.C.) and adorned either the restored Palace of Darius or that called Palace H.
