This is one of my favorite stories. One of the Persian restaurants I go to has a picture of the tomb on the menu. When I mentioned it to the waitress she didn't know what I was talking about, but apparently she mentioned it to the owner who immediately came over to my table and we talked for quite awhile about the great man.

No wonder the later Zoroastrians don't bury their dead -- instead they put hte bodies in a chamber for vultures to eat them
