Diverse techniques were evoked to embellish the rock reliefs at Persepolis. A specific feature on the column capitals at this complex entails a sort of decoration that today we can only hazard a guess about it based on a series of disparate holes. Holes were commonly used on the reliefs for measuring and copying the motifs, and attaching additional embellishments. Yet, this paper focused on the function of a certain type of drilled slanting, shallow double holes in small diameter that occur all over the tripartite column capitals at Persepolis. The paper concluded that the holes in question were possibly used to hang uncertain lightweight ornamentations.
