====Parsian style==== The "Persian style" (New Persian:شیوه معماری پارسی) is a style of architecture ("''sabk''") defined by Mohammad Karim Pirnia when categorizing the history of Persian/Iranian architectural development. Although the [[Median Empire|Median]] and Achaemenid architecture fall under this classification, the pre-Achaemenid architecture is also studied as a sub-class of this category.<ref name="Sabk Shenasi Mi'mari Irani 2005"/> This style of architecture flourished from eighth century BCE from the time of the Median Empire, through the Achaemenid empire, to the arrival of Alexander the Great in the third century BCE<ref>Fallāḥʹfar, Saʻīd (سعید فلاحفر).
