Historical background
Hyrcania, Old Persian Varkâna, "land of wolves", lay on the south-eastern shore of the Caspian Sea in today's northern Iran. The fertile plain between the sea and the Alborz mountains was a Persian satrapy and later a heartland of the Parthians. In antiquity the Caspian was also called the "Hyrcanian Sea" after it; its chief town was Zadrakarta.
