As an Iranian, this is the first time I hear about these windmills! Unfortunately, the only source of info about them is this National Geography video.<p>There is no exclusive page for them on wikipedia, but I could find how they work generally here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Panemone_windmill" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Panemone_windmill</a>

They also have incredible underground aqueducts that have been maintained for thousands of years. Smart people.

Fascinating how these windmills come across as a symbiosis between man and nature.<p>They’re an integral part of the landscape, part of the culture (or used to be), and harness the local environment to produce something. Same goes for rice terraces, vineyards, etc.<p>And yet I see many people complain about us sticking wind turbines on top of hills.<p>One can only imagine how the Iranian wind wills were received a thousand years ago.<p>I suspect it will take a generation or two for these turbines to turn them in to an integral part of our life as well. Or utter necessity.

What are the windmills used for? Is it for milling grains?

There&#x27;s likely an interesting Ship of Theseus debate to be had about whether these are indeed thousand-year-old windmills, and whether it&#x27;s accurate to consider the windmills build a thousand years ago to be &quot;still standing&quot;.
