This article appears in Volume V03, Page 301 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BAI-BAR
BAM , a town of Persia in the province of
Kerman
 , situated 115 M. S.E. of the city of
Kerman
  at an
elevation
  of 3600 ft. on both banks of the river
Barn
 . Pop. about 13,000. It is the
capital
  of the
Barn
 -Narmashir
district
  and has extensive groves of date-palms and gardens. Outside the town stands the famous citadel with walls 40 ft. in height. This citadel was, even as
late
  as the beginning of the 19th
century
 , the strongest fortified
place
  in Persia, and owed its strength to the Afghans who took Bam in 1719 and were not finally expelled until 18o1.
Post
  and telegraph offices have been established there since 1903.
