About Ctesiphon:
Ctesiphon (pronounced /ˈtɛsɨfɒn/; Persian: تیسفون, Arabic: قطسيفون) was one of the great cities of the Persian Empire, located on the east bank of the Tigris.
Ctesiphon was an imperial capital of the Arsacids and of their successors, the Sassanids. Today, the ruins of Ctesiphon lie in Iraq, approximately 35 km south of the city of Baghdad. Ctesiphon is first mentioned in the Book of Ezra of the Old Testament as Kasfia/Casphia (a derivative of the ethnic name, Cas, and a cognate of Caspian and Qazvin). In the 6th century, Ctesiphon was the largest city in the world.
