Susa Susa

In Susa (or rather Shushan) the Persian kings had their winter palace. The prophets Daniel (8:2) and Nehemiah (1:1) lived in Susa during the exile, and Esther became queen there (1:2).

The name Susa is related to the name Shoshannah (the Hebrew form of Susannah). See Shoshannah for an extensive look at the meaning of these names.
