| Abstract: Khorheh est un village situé sur la bordure occidentale du Plateau iranien, à 80 km au sud-ouest de la ville sainte de Qom. Il est dans une petite vallée un peu à l'écart d'une route caravanière autrefois importante. Entre des montagnes qui dépassent 2000 m d'altitude, les terres agricoles sont irriguées par une petite rivière et quelques qanâts (galeries drainantes souterraines). Au nord du village, le site ancien se repère aisément par deux colonnes ioniques toujours debout. | ||

| Abstract: La ville de Shushtar occupe une situation privilégiée sur le Karoun, le plus grand fleuve d'Iran, à sa sortie des Monts Zagros. En amont de la ville moderne, le Karoun se divise en deux branches, le Shoteyteh et le Gargar, qui se rejoignent 40 km en aval. L'île ainsi formée est appelée Miyan-Ab (l'entre rivières). Elle est formée d'alluvions très fertiles mais difficiles à exploiter par simple dérivation des eaux des deux bras, car le niveau des terres se trouve beaucoup plus haut que le lit des deux rivières. | ||

| Abstract:
Bandiyan, Dargaz, in the north of Khorasan, is one of the most important Sasanian period sites discovered in recent years. There are three small tepes, each with a height of not more than 4-5 m. situated within a short distances of each other. Last year we worked on the middle site and found an elaborate fire temple with beautiful stucco decoration in the (reception) hall. On the basis of a Middle Persian inscription found there, this fire temple belonged to a 'dastgird'. Site B, situated about 30 m. to the south-west of the fire temple, has been excavated since 2002. Here a circular tower was discovered with a diameter of 20 m. and a height of 3 m. built of chineh. On top of the tower there were further constructions. In the centre of the tower, there is a circular space with a diameter of 5.40m, the remaining space beyond is divided into three parts. Around one of these spaces were lime plaster benches, 10-15 cm. high and 50 cm. wide. The floor of this area was also made of lime plaster. A cistern about 80 cm. deep was dug in the centre of this space. There were three 'water' channels 1-2 m. in length sloping slightly towards the cistern. The body of the cistern and the water channels were covered with lime plaster. The fact that the water flow was restricted, an obstruction on one side, and the thin lime plaster on the inside of the well all rule out the suggestion that the cistern was used for collecting rain water. Although no bones and similar objects were found here, it had a religious significance rather than an everyday purpose. We shall consider the later period Zoroastrian Towers of Silence in Yazd and Kerman, as well as burial types of the Parthian and Sasanian periods and compare them with the Tower of Silence at Bandiyan, which reflects a stage in the development of such architecture. We regard this tower as being contemporary with a Sasanian period building on top of the ruins of the fire temple. [Author] | ||

It should be mentioned that the vast lands in eastern Iran (including Afghanistan) and Central Asia were largely untouched in Rawlinson's writings." [Frye, xi].

| Abstract:
The book (a long-awaited revised version of the author's PhD thesis) contains the edition (with translation and commentary) of a number of fragments (some Middle Persian, some Parthian) the text of which may be assigned to hymns designed for certain Manichaean holidays. There are chapters about these holidays, about MP/Prth. hymns in general, metrical analysis etc., a glossary and photos of all fragments which have not been published recently. [Agnes Korn] The Manichaean literature includes a great number of hymns, poems and prayers. Some of the best preserved parts of them are dedicated to the Manichaean holy days, Sunday, Monday and the annual Bema festival. These holy days are primarily important because of the confessional rituals which took place at this time. Though most of the hymns are incompletely preserved they allow some conclusions on the distinction of these feast days. The hymns are in Parthian and in Middle Persian, but were presumably copied by Uigur scribes during the period of the 8th to the 10th centuries AD. In this volume nearly 50 fragments of book pages are edited and examined. Nearly all are published here for the first time. Some of them contain lists of initial lines, listed with regard to the contents or according to melodies. The detailed introduction deals with the Sitz im Leben of these hymns, a comparison with the relevant hymns in other languages such as Coptic, Chinese and Uigur and a description of versification and stylistic means. This material makes new Manichaean original sources available and extends our knowledge about the liturgical traditions of the Manichaean community on Central Asia. [Publisher] | ||
