Forty stone steps lead to the top of the outcrop, hence its name. It gives a commanding view on the city of Kandahar.[1] Chil Zena was located on the northern side of the old citadel of Old Kandahar, destroyed by Nadir Shah Afshar of Persia in 1738.[2] Chil Zena is well known for the discovery of the Indian Emperor Ashoka's Kandahar Bilingual Rock Inscription on the mountainside， which is still located on in an open-air compound on the mountainside.[1] The presence of this inscription at Chil Zena helped confirm the presence of Greek populations in the vicinity in the 3rd century BCE, as well as the extent of Ashoka's control over the northwestern Indian subcontinent, which is therefore thought to have incorporated Kandahar and its region of Arachosia.[1] Chil Zena later received numerous inscriptions about the conquests of Emperor Babur (1526-1530), apparently carved by his son Humayun.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite book|title=Afghanistan|author=Dupree, L.|date=2014|publisher=Princeton University Press|isbn=9781400858910|url=https://books.google.fr/books?id=yvr_AwAAQBAJ&pg=PA286|page=286|accessdate=2016-11-27}} 2. ^British Library Online 1 : Kandahar |
