  • Overview of Sport History in Iran: Prehistory, Ancient and Modernization Hamid Ghasemi*1, Nazanin Rasekh2, Leila Izadparast3
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 21 June 2021 doi:10.20944/preprints202106.0524.v1 Overview of Sport History in Iran: Prehistory, Ancient and Modernization Hamid Ghasemi*1, Nazanin Rasekh2, Leila Izadparast3 1. Associate Professor, Sport Management Group, Payam-e-Noor University of Tehran, Iran. [email protected] 2. Assistant Professor of Sport Management, Sport Science Research Institute, Tehran, Iran. [email protected] 3. PhD of Sport Management, Payam-e-Noor University of Tehran, Iran. [email protected] Abstract The article reviews Iranian sports in three periods: prehistoric, ancient and modern. In prehistoric times, remaining cases have shown the existence of movement activities based on recreational and religious ceremonies. In the period of ancient history, documents such as Hasanlu Golden Cup and Arjan Cup, and in the continuation of architectures leftover from different eras, refer to the prosperity of sports activities with different approaches. Among all kinds of activities, Iranian zoorkhaneh sport has a significant cultural background and effect. Modern sports entered Iran through embassies, oil contractors, Western-educated students, and military representatives in other countries (in modern era). Iran became a member of the International Olympic Committee in 1947 and won its first Olympic medal in 1948. Entering the 21st century, the sport industry in Iran began to grow and the number of clubs, sports careers and sports science students in universities increased significantly. The growing dimension of attention and interest in sports among Iranians shows that sports will be one of the main areas in Iran's development in the future. KEYWORDS: Sport History; Iran; Zoorkhaneh Sport; Arjan Cup, Traditional Sport 1.
