Darius the Great's Suez Inscriptions (Old Persian Dârayavauť): king of ancient Persia, whose reign lasted from 522 to 486. He seized power after killing king Gaumâta, fought a civil war (described in the Behistun inscription), and was finally able to refound the Achaemenid empire, which had been very loosely organized until then. Darius fought several foreign wars, which brought him to India and Thrace. When he died, the Persian empire had reached its largest extent. He was succeeded by his son Xerxes. The following three texts are part of a stele of pink granite that was discovered in 1866, by Charles de Lesseps, near Kabret, 130 kilometers form Suez. The upper part shows Darius (twice), flanking a cartouche with his name (DZa). To the left and right is inscription DZb; at his feet is DZc, written in ancient Persian and Elamite; the reverse of the stone gives the same text -with some extra details- in Egyptian. The first two texts resemble DNa.

: ‫ﻧﺮﺟﻤﻪ ﺑﻪ اﻧﮕﻠﻴﺴﻲ‬ King Darius says: I am a Persian; setting out from Persia, I conquered Egypt.I ordered to dig this canal from the river that is called Nile and flows in Egypt, to the sea that begins in Persia. Therefore, when this canal had been dug as I had ordered, ships went from Egypt through this canal to Persia, as I had intended.
