<< News >> Iron Age relics unearthed in Gilan, Iran

Submitted by coldrum on Wednesday, 17 January 2007  Page Views: 1784

Iron Age and Later PrehistoryCountry: Iran Archeological excavations at the ancient Jamshid-Abad Tepe, northern Iran, resulted in the discovery of a number of graves and artifacts dated to the Iron Age.

The discovered artifacts include bronze and earthenware objects. Archeological evidence points to a history that goes back to the first millennium BCE at this ancient mound; and some archeologists believe it was a cemetery during the Iron Age. The new discovery was made after archeologists crated ten trenches in various points on the hill. Bronze daggers, ornamentations, and a number of potteries dated to the first millennium BCE were among some of the discovered artifacts at Jamshid-Abad Tepe.
According to team director Yousef Falahian, excavations began in this Iron Age hill last month with the aim of studying its historic remains and marking its historic boundaries.
