Thank you Enrique. I liked this video and also the novel related to this matter :)

Ok, Enrique, I saw this for the fourth time, and now understand what you mean by "not symmetrical". I agree with you and in fact the difference was our definition of asymmetry. As you explain (and I have seen it myself in the ceiling of the arch), one side of the arch has more layers of bricks than the other side. From inside, however, the arch looks perfect. But the land settlement of the water-logged banks of the Tigris under the weight of the supporting walls. This is while it was being constructed (1700-1500 years ago: no one can be sure yet), necessitated the adjustment. The marvel is still standing, of course. But the land settlement brought down all the building around the arch (there were two identical arches facing each other, of which, only this one stands. And the 1880s GRADUAL collapse via land settlement, brought down the northern façade and the pediment (wrongly associated with a flood in that decade). The land there is still subsiding. That is why a buttress was built in the mid 30th of the 20th century to hold up the southern facade. (and your reference to the Shahnama is news to me. I have a Soviet copy of it, which I am going to re-read and find it. I will let you know, if you like)

hi Enrique. are you getting my emails (with photos you asked for about the arch)?

TWOCOWS

Amazing how my comments and communications written here are immediately deleted!!! I wonder why. I am worried that this one gets deleted to. But don't want to appear rude and not thank you Enrique. In fact, I invited you to a closed circuit discussion by giving you my email address. But that too disappeared! I wrote in the other channel where we began the debate, alerting you of this problem.

(sorry, but i am copying and pasting my message many times over in order to make sure that at least one of them gets through)
