The importance of soil mineralogy in erosion of adobe in the historical city of Belqis
Belqis is a city in north-east Iran made entirely of adobe. It is a major example of well-known architectural and archaeological adobe structures. The current study relates to the deterioration of these structures caused by humidity, intensely affected by the local soil quality and the mineralogical/chemical characteristics of clayey materials applied in the Belqis citadel. Examination proved that many factors play a key role in the durability of…
Insights into late Sasanian glass workshop at the city of Istakhr, Fras; synchrotron XRF radiation techniques for glass characterization
Glass finds from the archaeological excavations of the city of Istakhr in the Fars province (actual Iran) have been subjected to archaeometric analysis. Based on their archaeological context, these pieces were dated to the fifth century CE. The glass fragments were analysed using environmental scanning electron microscopy combined with synchrotron‐based X‐ray fluorescence to accurately assess their chemical composition and fingerprint. Based on t…
Geochemical provenance studies of cultural materials from Sirvan historical Site, Ilam Province, Iran
Mineralogical and thermal analysis of the Neolithic ceramic from Ghaf Khāneh, a late Sixth millennium BCE site in Northeast Iran
Preliminary Chemical and Mineralogical Investigation of Traditional Pottery Production along Jiroft-Bampur district in the 4th and 3rd Millennium B.C. Iran
The intercultural connection between Jiroft in Kerman and Bampur in Blauchestan reflects a lot of geographical and socio-cultural curiosity between these two key areas in southeastern Iran. The distribution of huge archaeological sites shows the expansion of socio-cultural activities in the early fourth and late third millennium BC from the Chalcolithic to the Bronze Age in the Halil and Bampur basins. Undeniably, cultural developments reflect ma…

Beyond a Decoration; Mineralogical and Micro-structural Study of the Early Bronze Age “Life Cycle Jar” from Keshik Cemetery, Sistan and Balouchistan, Iran
The present study focuses on a unique pottery vessel, the so-called “Life Cycle Jar”, and nine other potsherds which were discovered in the Keshik cemetery, Baluchistan, south-east Iran. Samples were investigated through classical analytical methods such as thin-section petrography, X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), and scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (SEM-EDX) to determine the production techniques, …
Cathodoluminescence microscopy for interpreting the fabric and heating process of ancient pottery: Preliminary study on the technological features of pottery from the Kur River basin
Heterogeneous sherds were collected from 10 archaeological sites located in the Kur River Basin (KRB) in southern Iran. They have been analysed through routinely standard microscopic approach, including momentous cathodoluminescence microscopy in order to characterize the pottery fabrication and diversities in raw material and firing behaviour between different pottery production from the eighth to third millennium BCE. Cathodoluminescence interp…
Characterization of Gray-Black Stone Pillars of the Achaemenid Palace of Charkhab Borazja
Due to the extent of the empire's territory, the remains of the Achaemenid stone pillars have been registered in different parts of Iran. The remains of this architectural style can be seen in the monumental set of Pasargadae, Persepolis., Naqsh-e Rostam, Lidoma and Tomb-e Bot in Fars Province, the remains of Shush in Khuzestan Province, and stone works of Ecbatana in Hamedan, Rivi Palace in Northern Khorasan Province, and Achaemenid palaces in B…
Introducing, Classifying and Compositional Study of the Luster Tiles from Kerman
Over a hundred pieces of luster (zarrin-fām) tiles were excavated in Qaleh Dokhtar, Kerman.This article discusses the characteristic features of the luster tiles of Qaleh Dokhtar, and the origins and sources of raw materials of these tiles.The tiles were classified in four groups: "octagonal star tiles", "crucifix tiles", "square tiles" and "rectangle tiles".Then, the relative chronology and dating was carried out based on an inscription on a til…

Kahiro II: The importance of copper oxide extraction technology in 4th millennium BC in Halil river basin
During an archaeological survey in the area known as Halil River cultural district, a large number of metallic slag and crucibles were found which have been scattered as residues over the surface of the site, called Chayiro II. The study on the melting slags and crucibles help to know about the metallurgical processes and the presence of copper as the main metals in this region. 10 samples have been selected for mineralogical investigations for i…

Insight into the provenance and clustering of Middle Chalcolithic Ceramics from Chaharmahal-Bakhtiari, Iran: Using petrographic and ICP-OES analysis
A time-dependent statistical evaluation of the ceramic manufacturing process based on the mineralogical chemical analysis
The mineralogical adaptation in an inhomogeneous ancient ceramic matrix has an important function for their characterisation. In the current work, ceramic pieces from two workshops, Haft Tappeh and Chogha Zanbil were subjected to routine analysis. The aim of this study was to clustering the ceramics based on longitudinal statistical analysis and modelling to understand about the evaluation of manufacturing processes in an area through definite pe…
The provenance and distribution of Early Bronze ceramics in the Kolyaei Plain, central Zagros, Iran
Within Iran, there is little archaeological evidence for relationships between newly arrived Early Trans‐Caucasian (ETC) or Kura‐Araxes settlers and earlier inhabitants and contact with neighbouring cultures, or for their apparently abrupt end. Based on the evidence, the Iranian Kura‐Araxes was not a simple ‘copy' of the Caucasian Kura‐Araxes package. Ceramic traditions show local peculiarities, and all are elements suggesting that the Kura‐Araxe…
Mineralogical–Geochemical Characterization and Provenance of the Stones Used at the Pasargadae Complex in Iran: A New Perspective
The stone monuments of Pasargadae ( c. 550 to 330 bce ), Iran, represent a unique example of an advanced construction system that used stones as building materials. This study characterizes the mineralogical and chemical composition of these stones and determines their provenance. Five samples were obtained from buildings at Pasargadae and studied using optical microscopy (OM), X‐ray powder diffraction (QXRD), inductively coupled plasma‐mass spec…
