Abstract:
According to historical sources, Azargoshnesb fire temple was one of the three important Sassanid fire temples. The location of this fire temple is mentioned in Pahlavi Ganzak sources, which the Arabs called Shiz, and its fire temple was lit until the fourth century AH. According to historical sources and archaeological research, Shiz is the current Takht-e Soleiman. Takht-e Soleiman is completely forgotten for two centuries after the fifth century AH. so that in the historical sources there is no mention of this place, but in the reign of Ilkhanate, this place was considered again and a hunting palace was built in it. In this period, Takht-e Soleiman, is referred to as Storliq, Surluq, or Soghorluq and most of the historical developments of Takht-e Soliman in the Islamic period are related to this time. After the Ilkhanate period, during the early Safavid kings, this place was used as a royal hunting ground and in the same period, this place is known as the Takht-e Soleiman. With the change of the Safavid capital and the departure of Takht-e Soleiman from the centers of government, this place was marginalized and forgotten forever in the political history of Iran.
Machine summary:
After the fifth century AH, Takht-e Soleyman was completely forgotten for two centuries, so that there is no mention of this place in historical sources, but in the Ilkhanate period, this place was once again noticed and a hunting palace was built there.
He also associated the place with a collection of early names and historical events, such as Phraata, which was attacked by the Roman general Antony the Great (30-83 BC) in 36 BC, or Vera, a fortress mentioned only by Strabo, or Ganzaca (Ganzaca), the capital of Azerbaijan, which was attacked by Heraclius I (41-610 AD), the Byzantine emperor, in 624 or 628 AD; or the city of Shiz, the location of the Azargoshnasb Fire Temple; or Saqorloq (where Abaqa Khan built a palace (68: b1841&3: a1841,Rawlinson)).
According to Hamdollah Mostofi, the palace located in Saqurloq was built during the period of Abaqa Khan, and the dates written on the tiles obtained from the Takht-e Suleiman complex confirm his opinion.
After the death of Abaqa Khan in 680 AH, although he was in Khorasan, it seems that Arghun maintained contact with Bulughan Khatun and Ghazan, and perhaps both of them stayed in Saqurloq most of the time.
Honda believes that a place called Qujin-e Bozorg, which, according to Rashid al-Din, is located in the Saqurloq region (Hamdani, 1388: 937), is probably a mispronunciation of Fujin-e Bozorg, which may have been a title for Bulughan Khatun (97-1978296, Honda).
