<p>[QUOTE=&quot;zumbly, post: 2150299, member: 57495&quot;]Cool one, Noob.&nbsp; I found this bit on Hekatompylos from Wiki amusing:</p><p><br /></p><p><i>The Greek name Hekatompylos means &quot;one hundred gates&quot; and the Persian term has the same meaning. But the title was commonly used for cities which had more than the traditional four gates.</i></p><p><br /></p><p>I can just imagine how the conversation went when it came to naming the city...</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Tiridates:</b> Hey bro, what should we call our city? Maybe the name can have something to do with these five gates here.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Arsaces:</b> Good idea, but let&#039;s just round it up and say it has a hundred gates.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p><b>Tiridates: </b>Hekatompylos it is![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
