Link to Bastam Excavations[edit]

I removed the following link because it's about Bastam in West Azerbaijan, an urartian site, not Bastam in Semnan:

Bistam-Bastam-Bostam[edit]

I have moved this article from Bostam to Bistam. The town is known outside of Iran by virtue of its Islamic monuments and its association with the mystic Bayazid Bistami. The noted scholar of Iran Richard N. Frye calls the place Bisṭām in his Encyclopaedia of Islam article, while noting that Bastām and Bostām are variants. Annemarie Schimmel in her Mystical Dimensions of Islam, the standard text on the subject, calls the saint Bistami.

I am aware of the contemporary pronunciation of place in Persian. Interested editors may want to examine the thread at Talk:Bayazid Bastami for details. Aramgar (talk) 00:04, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
