Fire, Clay, and the Quiet Discipline of Craft at an Iron Age City in the Zagros How archaeologists reconstructed a complete pottery production system at Dinka, revealing conservative technologies, shared knowledge & a form of urban organization long underestimated in the Iron Age

2 months ago

Iron Age potters at Dinka fired low, slow, and together. New research reconstructs an entire production system, showing conservative technology, shared knowledge, and underestimated urban organization in the Zagros. #Archaeology #IronAge #Pyrotechnology #Zagros www.anthropology.net/p/fire-clay-...

Feasting Before Farming: What Boar Skulls in the Zagros Tell Us About Neolithic Social Life At a site older than agriculture, isotope data reveals wild boars were carried across mountains for communal feasts—and perhaps, to show where guests came from

8 months ago

11,000 years ago, people in Iran's Zagros Mountains carried wild boars over 70 km for a feast. Why? Isotope data suggests it was about place, memory, and social bonds—not calories. #archaeology #neolithic #bioarchaeology #Zagros #feasting #iran

Dans la grotte de Shanidar, au Kurdistan irakien, les Néandertaliens lèvent le voile sur leurs secrets Le site préhistorique situé dans les monts Zagros, au nord-est du pays, est réputé pour abriter des restes fossiles de Néandertaliens. Les récentes découvertes d’une équipe d’archéologues, dont la reconstitution du crâne de l’une des plus vieilles femmes du monde, ont été dévoilées dans un documentaire sur Netflix. Le lieu voit aujourd'hui affluer les touristes dont des Kurdes, à la redécouverte de leur région.

What 11,000 Animal Remains Reveal About Ancient Life in Iran's Zagros Mountains A remote cave in western Iran holds a continuous record of carnivores, pastoralists, and climate change stretching back to the Late Pleistocene.

A cave in Iran’s Zagros Mountains holds 11,000 animal remains—bears, lions, goats—spanning 50,000 years. From Neanderthals to herders, Wezmeh Cave is rewriting the story of human–animal interaction. #archaeology #paleoecology #Iran #Zagros

Amy Richardson’s new study (Open Archaeology) analyzes #Neolithic knowledge & material networks across the Zagros. However, key western #Zagros sites (e.g., Tapeh Qazanchi, and Asad Morad) are absent from regional maps. digital.zlb.de/viewer/metad...
