Behram (Enceladus)

Son of a Persian king in the tale "Prince Behram and the Princess Al-Datma"

Behram is an impact crater on the anti-Saturn hemisphere of Saturn's moon Enceladus. Behram's rim overlaps that of Shakashik, suggesting that Behram formed after Shakashik. Following formation, numerous criss-crossing fractures cut across Behram, forming canyons hundreds of meters deep along the crater's rim, as well as a region of disrupted terrain on the crater floor. (wikipedia entry)

A crater is a circular depression likely created by an impact event. On Enceladus they are named after people and places from Burton's Arabian Nights.
