From village to empire in the Zagros highlands: Archaeological investigations at Tol-e Nurabad (Fars Province, Iran)

这一澳大利亚-伊朗联合考古项目将加强澳大利亚和伊朗在共同感兴趣的领域--对过去社会的调查--方面的重要合作伙伴关系。这种合作的人类意义远远超出了澳大利亚与伊朗的商业关系。它将在两个社会之间架起桥梁，促进科学和基层层面的理解。这是对伊朗过去的善意和真正兴趣的切实表达，也是对与中东最重要的国家之一的文化和人际关系的投资。

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.
