Shapur I's Ka'ba-ye Zartosht inscription (shortened as Shapur-KZ, ŠKZ, [1] SKZ [2]), also referred to as The Great Inscription of Shapur I, [2] [3] and Res Gestae Divi Saporis (RGDS), [2] [1] is a trilingual inscription made during the reign of the Sasanian king Shapur I (r. 240–270) after his victories over the Romans.
