History of Semirom

The discovery of ancient works, including Ashkeft Zar cave inscriptions, cuneiform inscriptions, early Islamic tombstones, stone elephants left over from the Sassanid era, indicate that Samirim dates back to 700 BC and the Achaemenid period. . Also, the historical history of Semiram's urbanization is estimated to be related to the Kasian period. The proof of this claim is the existence of a farm called Kore in the south of Semiram city, which now has ruins of several houses and bathrooms. The presence of a bath in the pre-Islamic era was one of the indicators of the city of Semiram; Also, during the Achaemenid period, the city was called Korah, so giving the name Korah to this area is another reason to prove the claim that the city of Semiram existed in ancient times. The city of Semiram has gone through a period of ups and downs and has seen many wars and looting during many periods. This city was separated from Abadeh city in Fars province in 1325 and became subordinate to Isfahan province, and finally in 1342 it was chosen as the center of Semiram city.
