Funded Activity Summary

From village to empire in the Zagros highlands: Archaeological investigations at Tol-e Nurabad (Fars Province, Iran). This joint Australian-Iranian archaeological project will strengthen an important collaborative partnership between Australia and Iran in an area of mutual interest - the investigation of past societies. The human significance of such collaboration extends far beyond Australia's commercial relationship with Iran. It will build bridges and promote understanding between the two societies at both a scientific and grassroots level. It is a tangible expression of goodwill and a genuine interest in Iran's past, as well as an investment in a cultural and human relationship with one of the most important countries in the Middle East.
