Kermanshah, Iran - An ancient stone inscription known as "Kuduru," or the border stone of "Marduk Apal Aydin," has been unveiled at the Taq-e Bostan Stone Museum in Kermanshah. This remarkable artifact, discovered in Sarpol-e Zahab, dates back over 3,000 years.

Iran Press/Iran news:  According to Dariush Farmani, the Director General of Cultural Heritage, Tourism, and Handicrafts in Kermanshah, the term "Kuduru" comes from the Akkadian language, meaning "border stone."

Farmani highlighted that a total of 58 such inscriptions have been discovered in Shush, Khuzestan Province, with one additional example found in Sarpol-e Zahab.
