    Dear Maryam,

    Thank you for this most interesting article. Just last night, I was researching into the zurkhaneh and javanmardi tradition. Interestingly, yet again visible is the khatam as the sunken, octagonal pit at the center of the zurkhaneh.

    Thank you again.

    Kindest wishes,

    mo'in
