In: Iran. Journal of the British Institute of Persian Studies, 2022. (Type: Journal Article | Abstract | Links | BibTeX)@article{nokey, In the last two decades, the Varamin Plain to the southeast of Tehran has been the focus of intensified archaeological work, with surveys and excavations yielding new insights into the region’s settlement history. New material from the dynamic network of Chalcolithic sites on the Jajrud alluvial fan now offers a more solid basis to assess the links between the Varamin Plain and the site of Tappeh Sialk in the Kashan Plain, which still remains a reference point for this period. In this paper, we use painted pottery to examine the dating and relationships of the settlements of Ahmadabad-e Kuzehgaran and Chaltasian on the Varamin Plain to Tappeh Sialk. Based on an in-depth quantitative analysis of motif assemblages at the three sites, we evaluate contemporaneities as well as stylistic similarities and differences. We highlight both shared temporal trends and regional specificities. |

(Type: Journal Article | Abstract | Links | BibTeX)@article{nokey, An Iron Age graveyard, for the most part dating from the 8th - 7th century BC, was accidentally discovered in 2008 during road works near Sanandaj, Iranian Kurdistan. Rescue excavations were conducted by the Cultural Heritage Department in Sanandaj. The present contribution reports on these first excavations during which more than 20 graves were discovered in two squares and a trench. A selection of the graves and the burial goods are discussed. |

(Type: Journal Article | Abstract | Links | BibTeX)@article{nokey, This essay is intended to illustrate the point of you with some evidence that something of the archaeology of the vast area of the Iranian plateau can be learnt by attending to the boundaries of cultural influences as indicated by pottery similarities and differences at successive times. It is assumed that there must be reasons for different pottery styles and particular ceramic features spreading to some areas but not to others, but the most we can presently infer is greater or lesser degrees of communication between such reasons. We are not here discussing cultures, culture areas, or regional traditions: For that we would need many more excavated sites and fuller material culture assemblages. What does concern us is the mutual influencing of cultures and societies by each other, Indicated by pottery and expressing degrees of communication, even though we can identify neither the cultures or societies involved, but only the general directions from which influences came. What is interesting is that pottery groupings and influences show different patternings in space at different times. Most of the data to be introduced come from Tal-i-Iblis, a site recently investigated in Southern Iran. Striking ceramic connections between Iblis and western Iran (and ultimately Mesopotamia) at some times, but not at others, were the main reason for writing this essay. In this, I have found it helpful to employ the term oikoumenê, first used for historical purposes by Kroeber and later by Braidwood and Howe to represent the great outward spread of the Ubaidian style in southwest Asia at the end of the fifth millennium B.C. Society's included within an oikoumenê are in communication but need not be culturally very much alike. It appears that Tal-i-Iblis belonged to two oikoumenê’s, the aforementioned Ubaidian Oikoumenê, and a later Jemdet Nasr Oikoumenê. |
