The Village Where Men Are Banned to entry

Amards were the people inhabiting the area before the arrival of Aryans, who had migrated to and settled on the Plateau from the late 2nd millennium BCE to early 1st millennium BCE. Many scholars believe that the city’s name is rooted in the word Amard (Amui in Pahlavi). According to historical literature, Amol was the capital of Mazandaran, at least in the period starting from Sassanid Empire to the Ilkhanate dynasty of Mongol Empire.
