Excavations at Tepe Guran in Luristan: The Bronze Age and Iron Age Periods

By Henrik Thrane, Juliet Clutton-Brock, Werner Alexanderson, et al.

Luristan in Western Iran was largely inaccessible to foreigners until the construction of a new road in the 1960s permitted a Danish archaeologucal team to investigate the Luristan Bronze culture. This volume examines the Protohistoric finds, the settlement, tombs and graves from the centuries around 1000 BC and includes reports on animal bone and human remains. The Neolithic and other prehistoric finds will be published by Peder Mortensen. This volume also records the last century's mismanagement and exploitation of the Luristan cultural heritage.
