The Hypostyle Hall (here in its state in 1971), measuring 37.50 x 34.60 m, had eight rows of eight bell-shaped column bases, of which less than 30 have been preserved. The others have all disappeared. Most were probably burned in the lime kiln of a sugar refinery that was established above the ruins in Medieval times.
The east portico, towards Darius’s Palace, has completely disappeared. The north portico (top left), which was shorter than the central hall, features two rows of five square bases. The order was therefore the opposite to the Hypostyle Hall in Darius’s Palace. The two types of base have the same module: 1.14 m in diameter or per side, i.e., half the dimensions of the bases in the Hypostyle Hall in Darius’s Palace. This allows the shafts and capitals – which were certainly not in stone, but rather wood – to be given a height of 10 m.
