Talkhooncheh is a city in Isfahan province and in the Mobarakeh region. This city is thousands of years old and has historical monuments of different periods, including mosques with Safavid architecture, castles, and old buildings. The original name of this city was “Taleghan J”, which became known as Talekhooncheh due to the bloodshed of the Mongol people in this place. The city was also the birthplace of Sahib bin Ibad, a Muslim minister.
In ancient times in Iran, there were three Taleghans. One is Taleghan Khorasan, the author of “Hudood al-Alam” mentions its location between Takharistan and Khatlan and on the border of Gozkanan and Yaghoot in “Ma’jam al-Baldan” between Balkh and Marwalrud. Istakhri says: “The largest city of Takharistan is Taleghan; This city is located on flat land and its distance to the mountain is a throwing arrow, it has a large river and many gardens and it is about one-third of Balkh. A group of nobles belongs to it. This is the same Taleghan that is mentioned in Ferdowsi’s Shahnameh
Taleghan Second is a city that is limited to Mazandaran from the north and east, and from Savojbolagh from the south and from Qazvin from the west, which is a mountainous region and its important part is located in Shahroud valley. This Taleghan is located in the old Saleqan Rey and in The new mine is called Taleghan Qazvin. The third Taleghan is Taleghan Ji, explaining that the old name or the old title of the city of Isfahan was Ji (see Al-Baldan Dictionary, vol. 2, p. 202, published by Dar Al-Kitab Al-Arabi – Beirut). “Al-Baldan” refers to the part as a whole, meaning that Ji was part of Isfahan and the other part was “Judea”, which was larger than “Ji”, but the area of Ji (which in ancient Persian was called during the Achaemenid period. “Gay” was said to have been more prosperous and the countryside was attributed to the number of days of the year. Taleghan Ji is what is now called “Talkhooncheh” and in terms of converting letters to each other, according to linguistic rules, there is no obstacle in converting Taleghan Jay to Talkhooncheh. N) which is currently in Persian, and in dictionaries and dictionaries of places that have referred all of Talequn to (Taleghan); it is normal. The conversion of the letter “qaf” to “kh” is also abundant: collar The conversion of “Ji” to “Che” is also frequent, and in ancient texts, it is often replaced by “Che” (Ji) (see books such as “Tarjman al-Balaghah”, “Tafsir Surabadi”, “Al-Abniya” and “Save Khwarazmshahi” and …) but the word itself (Taleghan) is meaning (Talaan) or (Targan) that “tar” in this combination means and converter (Dar) means tree (generally) and poplar (especially) And “Gan” is the suffix of place, therefore, Taleghan is a city or village that has many trees or has many poplar trees.
Mr. Mohammad Mehryar, a professor and scientist from Isfahan, in his book “Comprehensive Culture of Ancient Names and Settlements of Isfahan”, which he recently published, has stated under the name “Talkhooncheh”: “Talkhoncheh” which some people mistakenly call it today. They write “Talkhooncheh” and it is certainly not true … but in several later sentences such a figure has been said: Carefully in this word we see that from the two components “Tal” equivalent to “Tal” and “Qan” equivalent “Kan” of Quds is thus composed]. But in the case of the word “gold”, its origin is undoubtedly (tar) as the letter (l) and (r) in the Pahlavi language had a sign. Therefore, the word (tal) is another pronunciation of the word (tar) and tar is equivalent to (tar), the meaning of which is clear to us. And the second part is the same suffix (s) which has become (qan) in interpretation. Therefore, Taleghan is the same (Targan) means the place to which (Tar) is attributed. And (tar) is equivalent to (dar) meaning tree, incidentally with the word (tar) is equivalent to (tar) many places around the country such as tar (Natanz and Gonbad Kavous) and Taran (mirage) and so on. But apparently, Taleghan means talent …
So far, it has been found that there are three Taleghans in Iran, the first is Taleghan Khorasan, the second is Taleghan Qazvin or Taleghan Rey, and the third is Taleghan Ji (on the weight of Taleghan Rey), which has become a Talekhooncheh in terms of lexical structure. And the word Taleghan means ten or a city full of trees in general and ten or a city full of poplar trees in particular, and Talkhoncheh was such a place in the first view a few years ago. Mohammad Mehdi Ibn Mohammad Reza Al-Isfahani, the author of the book “Half the World in the Definition of Isfahan”, mentions the name of this place (Tali Khoni) and while describing the climatic conditions, refers to a kind of melon called Karim Khani and considers it qualitatively equal to Isfahan wolf melon. Is. Dehkhoda dictionary states that the houses of this village are mostly built in the form of forts. The building of the Ten, which has now become a city, suggests that its emergence was gradual in the first place. Secondly, it has many similarities with the construction of former Iranian cities. The mosques and houses of this place are remarkable in terms of study and construction, there is no more ruin than a mosque called Khyber Mosque or Talar Mosque, but this ruin is reminiscent of the Grand Mosque of Isfahan. The bridges and castles of Talkhooncheh show the greatness and antiquity of the city.
