Journal: Iranica Antiqua Volume: 41 Date: 2006 Pages: 31-58 DOI: 10.2143/IA.41.0.2004759 Abstract : The Belgian Archaeological Mission in Iran (BAMI) started its research in the Pusht-i Kuh of Luristan in the autumn of 1965. The BAMI was a joined effort of Ghent University and the Royal Museums of Art and History, Brussels (KMKG-MRAH). The expeditions which were directed until 1979 by the late Louis Vanden Berghe, targeted mainly graveyards from the Chalcolithic era, the Bronze Age and the Iron Age (Haerinck & Overlaet 1996, p. 1-6; 2004b). War Kabud is the first and the largest of the Iron Age III cemeteries (ca. 800/750 to 600 BCE) that were excavated. |
