Headline Replica of the "Edict of Cyrus" At the United Nations 
Caption Description The Government of Iran presented the United Nations with a replica of the ""Edict of Cyrus"" in a ceremony held in the corridor outside the economic and Social Council Chamber on 14 October 1971. The ""Edict of Cyrus” is a declaration made by Cyrus the Great concerning the preservation of human rights in occupied cities after his capture of Babylon in 539 B.C. Cyrus the Great (circa 600 B.C. to 529 B.C.) was the founder of the Persian Empire which, at his death, extended from the Hellespont to the Indies.  The replica of the clay tablet on which the cuneiform letters of the “Edict” are inscribed was made by the British Museum from the original which is in its collection. The case in which it is displayed was designed by the Metropolitan Museum Art, New York, and contains English and French translations of the ancient Persian art as well as the replica itself.
A view of the replica of the ""Edict of Cyrus"" on display at UN headquarters.
