just last week I was talking to my son and wife about the name "PaarsiguTTA"locality situated near
you can take a look on Google maps Parsigutta
till today I was under the impression that it was just a simple circular compound in which the dead bodies were exposed to the elements and birds but today when I was reading about it in Wikipedia it is much more technical and elaborate than that.
it neither produces carbon emissions like cremation, nor does it occupy land space like graveyards.
Please read about this it is fascinating.
Unfortunately most of these are becoming defunct mainly because of the stupidity of the conservative Parsi community which just like the fundamentalist Jews do not accept anyone else into their fold. Although they were taken in with open arms by the Indians when they were driven away from Persia by the Mohamedan invasions.
when I look at the classic Avestan Ostodhan is a direct descendent of Sanskrit.
