"A
Parthian Chahhar-Taqi in the village of ‘Alaviyeh of
Jahrom is on the verge of complete destruction as the
result of authority's negligence, and vandalism by the
locals. A section of this ancient monument has already
been collapsed" reported by ISNA Persian service.
The
structure dates back to the Arsacid dynastic era, and was
in use for religious as well as astronomical
purposes.
