Shahr-i Gholghola

Shahr-i Gholghola (Persian: شهر غلغله) (City of Screams), also called Sar-o-Tar. is a historical, archaeological site located in Nimroz Province of the Sistan region, which presently encompasses parts of Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. The ruin might be the fortress city of Taq, known from medieval Islamic sources.

Shahr-i Gholghola was the land of the Saka people of sistan, who inhabited this area in the last two centuries BCE. This land may derives its name from these people.

Nowadays, there is no attention paid to the protection and rehabilitation of historical sites in Nimroz Province by relevant authorities, and this causes almost all historical monuments, including the city of Gholghola, to be on the verge of destruction.
