Hecatompylos (Greek: Ἑκατόμπυλος) was an ancient city in west Khurasan, Iran, which was the capital of the Parthian Arsacid dynasty by 200 BCE. The Greek name Hekatompylos means "one hundred gates", but this title was commonly used for cities which had more than the traditional four gates. It may be understood better as the "Many Gated".
