Hamadan - - 
Shevereen is a village three miles from 
Hamadan. Hamadan, situated at the 
foot of the east side of the mountain of 
Alwund. Many streams fall from Al¬ 
wund into the plain. Alwund appears at 
a distance to be one long range of moun¬ 
tains. I am assured the length of Al¬ 
wund Proper is not more than three fur¬ 
sungs in length; and is distinct from the 
northern range. Through the interval 
between these two ranges, leads the road 
to Kermanshah.
