No-oh-oh! The ruins of Persepolis (ancient Parsua) are located 60 km NE of modern Shiraz, near the town of Marv-Dasht. Bisotun (Behistun) lies in W Iran, on the old road from Babylon to Ecbatana, near the modern city of Kermanshah. They are as far apart as San Francisco and San Diego! The fact that both places are connected with Darius I doesn't mean that they are the same.

Why oh why is this becoming so-o-o difficult.  I must be reading too quickly.  I'll return to your original link and do more searching.
