Bahram Vallis is an ancient river valley in theLunae Palus quadrangle ofMars at 20.7° north latitude and 57.5° west longitude. It is about 302 km long and was named after the word for 'Mars' in Persian.^[1] Bahram Vallis is located midway betweenVedra Valles and lowerKasei Valles. It is basically a single trunk valley, with scalloped walls in some places. The presence of streamlined erosional features on its floor shows that fluid was involved with its formation.^[2]
