| 7000 Years of Iranian Art (1964-1965) | ||
| Washington: Smithsonian Institution, 1965, 183 p. | ||
| Abstract:
Overview: 737 catalogued objects were on view, dating from prehistoric times to the late 19th century and including pottery, metalwork of bronze, gold, and silver, weapons and jewelry, paintings, carpets, and textiles. The exhibition was made up of some 500 objects from the collection of Mohssen Foroughi, brother of the Iranian ambassador to the United States, and some 200 pieces selected from the archaeological museum in Tehran by Richard Ettinghausen. The Foroughi collection had been shown in 6 European museums in 1961-1963 (Sept Mille Ans d'Art en Iran). 12 objects considered to be of doubtful authenticity were withdrawn. The show was opened by the Shah and the Empress Farah, who were in Washington to discuss increased foreign aid to Iran with President Lyndon Johnson. Other venues: National Gallery of Art, 7 June-19 July 1964 Denver Art Museum William Rockhill Nelson Gallery of Art, Kansas City, Missouri Museum of Fine Arts, Houston Cleveland Museum of Art Museum of Fine Arts, Boston California Palace of the Legion of Honor, San Francisco Los Angeles County Museum of Art | ||

| The Archaeology of Elam - Formation and Transformation of an Ancient Iranian State (1999) | ||
| Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1999 | ||
| Abstract:
Few of the major peoples of the ancient Near East have been as little studied as the Elamites, a disparate collection of people living in what is today southwestern Iran, and yet few had such an impact on the course of history from c. 2600 BC to the first centuries AD. As the first synthesis of Elamite archaeology to appear in English in over fifteen years, this volume will serve as a major resource for all scholars, students and laymen interested in the ancient Near East. [Amazon] Chapter 10, 'Elymais', concerns Parthia's role vis-a-vis Elymais / Susiana. Chapter 10 has a very interesting synthesis, especially for the Hellenistic period. His chronology of kings is unfortunately very old (based upon Hill and de Morgan) and follows for the "Orodes" dynasty the arguable work of R. Vardanian. | ||

| Abstract: This elegant publication presents the major results of 40 years of archaeological research in a series of papers by leaders in their respective fields. In so doing it provides a fascinating insight into the diverse, but little-known, history and heritage of the region. From the first signs of human occupation, in the Late Stone Age, to the copper-mining industry of the Bronze Age and its international trade links, to the short-lived existence of Christian communities before Islam, and then into the Islamic period with its far-flung commerce, the archaeologcial evidence of the UAE's place in the history of the region is clearly documented | ||

| Abstract: The authors' reconstruction of the political history of western Bactria as well as the dating of the famous gold objects from Tillia-tepe is supported by coin finds from burials at the site at Shihbarghan, northern Afghanistan. Among the five coins recovered are two Parthian silver coins dating to the reign of Mithridates II (123-88 B.C.) and that of Phraates IV (38-2 B.C.), the latter found in the mouth of the deceased. A gold coin found in the hand of the same corpse is a local imitation of first-century B.C. Parthian coins, a Tiberius (A.D. 16-29) aureus , and an Indian coin probably also of the first century A.D. complete the coin inventory. | ||
