Emmanuel Baudouin, L’architecture de Mésopotamie et du Caucase de la fin du 7e à la fin du 5e millénaire
Les recherches exposées dans l’ouvrage d’Emmanuel Baudouin présentent la double originalité qu’elles s’intéressent à l’architecture et au Caucase, en lien avec la Mésopotamie. Thème de recherche d’archéologues comme Jean-Claude Margueron, Olivier Aurenche, Jean-Daniel Forest et Martin Sauvage, pour n’en citer que quelques-uns en France, l’architecture, pourtant centrale au sein des premières communautés sédentaires, est paradoxalement souvent peu…
Sarazm: A Site along the Proto-Silk Road at the Intersection of the Steppe and Oasis Cultures
Sarazm, in modern-day Tajikistan, is rightly famous as an archaeological site. A Chalcolithic and Bronze Age settlement, it formed part of a cultural and economic network that stretched from the steppe of Central Asia across to the Iranian Plateau and the Indus. Between 1984 and 1994, fieldwork led by a joint Tajik-French project took place at Excavation VII, yielding unique archaeological contexts and materials that shed light on Sarazm’s multic…

The Neolithic regional settlement of Darestan, Southern Lut Desert, Iran
New Data on the Chalcolithic and Bronze Age Periods in the South-Eastern Greater Periphery of the Jazmurian Basin
This article reports results from an archaeological survey conducted along the Sarbaz Valley and in adjacent areas in parts of Sarbaz and Chahbahar counties in the Sistan and Baluchestan province of south-eastern Iran. The surveyed area is located in the south-eastern greater periphery of the Jazmurian Basin, in-between the Bampur Valley ca. 120 km. to the north-west and the Kech-Makran region less than 100 km. to the south-east in Pakistan. Both…

Bam Archaeological Mission
The Bam Archaeological Mission aims to investigate ancient settlement in the Bam-Narmashir region of Iran. Preliminary survey has identified over 200 new archaeological sites, with renewed excavation at the key site of Tell-e Atashi revealing structural evidence of Neolithic occupation
New Discoveries in the Bampur Valley (South-Eastern Iran) and Their Implications for the Understanding of Settlement Pattern in the Indo-Iranian Borderlands During the Chalcolithic Period
This article presents the results of the first systematic archaeological survey of the Bampur Valley in south-eastern Iran. This survey discovered 39 Chalcolithic sites dating to between the mid-to-late fifth and mid-to-late fourth millennium BC and collected numerous archaeological ceramics. These new data include substantial evidence for relationships with cultural complexes extending in the neighbouring regions of Kerman to the north-west and …
Regional and long-distance exchange of an emblematic ‘prestige’ ceramic in the Indo-Iranian Borderlands. Results of Neutron Activation Analysis
This article investigates the production and distribution of a high quality ceramic typical of the Indo-Iranian Borderlands ca 3000 BC, a ceramic we term here Late Shahi-Tump ware, often included under the generic label Emir Grey ware. Recorded at sites located hundreds of kilometers distant on the Southeastern Iranian Plateau, including Shahr-i Sokhta, Tepe Yahya, and Shahi-Tump, this ceramic is one of the few data points we have to approach the…
Investigating ceramic production during the Proto-Elamite period at Tepe Yahya, southeastern Iran
Chrono-Cultural Sequence of the Bampur Valley (South-Eastern Iran) during the Chalcolithic Period
This paper provides an updated view of the chronology of and cultural complexes present in the Bampur Valley, south-eastern Iran, during the Chalcolithic period (fifth and fourth millennia BC). It is based on a reexamination of ceramic assemblages from six sites located in this valley investigated by Aurel Stein in the 1930s—assemblages that are held by the Peabody Museum at Harvard University—and comparisons with additional available data from t…
Cultural Dynamics in Southern Middle Asia in the fifth and fourth millennia BC
Cet article est un essai de synthèse portant sur les principales traditions céramiques du Sud de l’Asie moyenne lors du cinquième millénaire et au début du quatrième millénaire av. J.-C. La Mésopotamie, le sud-ouest de l’Iran et le Golfe persique, caractérisés alors par le développement de l’Obeid et de productions céramiques peintes en noir sur pâte claire, sont comparés aux situations observées dans le sud-est du Plateau iranien et au Pakistan.…
La Basket Ware , une production céramique originale de la Protohistoire des confins indo-iraniens
This paper deals with an original and poorly known ceramic product: Basket Ware. It is characterized by its technique of molding the shape inside a basket, whose imprints remain visible on the outside surface of the vase. Basket Ware is found only in the Indo-Iranian borderlands, between the 5th millennium and the second half of the 3rd millennium BC. In what follows, we present a preliminary report on this ware, supported by data available in th…
