Meshan (Middle Persian: 𐭬𐭩𐭱𐭠𐭭) was a province of the Sasanian Empire. It consisted of the Parthian vassal kingdom of Characene and reached north along the Shatt al-Arab river and then the lower Tigris to Madhar and possibly further. Its inhabitants included Babylonians, Arabs, Iranians, and even some Indians and Malays (the Malays may have been slaves brought from the Indian sub-continent). The province was very fertile, the best place for barley according to Strabo, and contained many date palms. It was also an important trading province along the Persian Gulf.

  • Maishan era una satrapia (provincia) dell'impero sasanide, costituita dai regni vassalli parti di Mesene e Characene, arrivando a nord lungo il corso dello Shatt al-Arab e dunque al basso corso del Tigri fino a e possibilmente oltre. I suoi abitanti comprendevano babilonesi, arabi, iranici, e anche in minima parte indiani e malesi (forse schiavi portati dal sub-continente indiano). La provincia, importante per il commercio lungo il Golfo Persico, era molto fertile (secondo Strabone il miglior luogo per l'orzo) e possedeva molte palme di datteri. (it)
  • Мешан (среднеперс.: 𐭬𐭩𐭱𐭠𐭭) был провинцией Сасанидской империи. Она состояла из вассальных парфянских царств Месены и Харакены и достигала области на севере вдоль реки Шатт-эль-Араб, а затем нижней части от реки Тигр до Мадара и в конечном итоге дальше. Его жителями были вавилоняне, арабы, иранцы и даже некоторые индийцы и малайцы (малайцы, возможно, были рабами, привезёнными с Индийского субконтинента). Провинция была очень плодородной, согласно Страбону, это было лучшее место для посадки ячменя, а местность была покрыта множеством пальм. Это была также важная торговая провинция вдоль Персидского залива. (ru)
