Material and methods: It was a prospective study on 143 pregnant women referred to health centers in Ram- hormoz city during March 20 to September 21, 2013. The data collection tool was the Edinburgh questionnaire. The demographic data including age, education, occupation, spouse’s occupation, relative income of the family, satisfaction with child gender, frequency of prenatal care, history of nausea and vomiting in the first trimester of pregnancy, and abortion were collected. Data were entered into the SPSS software and analyzed using descriptive and analytical statistical tests such as sample t-test, one independent sample t-test, one-way ANOVA and χ2 test. The significance level was considered 0.05. Results: A significant association was found between age of mother, parity, maternal education, satisfaction with gender of newborn, and method of delivery with postpartum depression (p < 0.05). The mean prevalence of postpartum depression was different in mothers with unwanted pregnancy, or newborn’s disease during birth (p < 0.05).

  • Neo-Elamite Geography, Chronology, History, and the Textual and Iconographic Evidence Used in This Book
    Chapter 1 Neo-Elamite Geography, Chronology, History, and the Textual and Iconographic Evidence Used in this Book To sketch a background against which the burials can be investigated through- out the rest of this book, the present chapter reviews Neo-Elamite geography and chronology, and introduces the available textual and iconographic sources for the period. A historical outline then illuminates the contemporary socio- political circumstances, which, as will become increasingly clear towards the conclusion of this work, both reflect and are reflected in funerary practices. 1.1 Geography During the first half of the first millennium, the cultural area of Elam is thought to have roughly encompassed today’s provinces of Khuzestan and Fars [Pl. 1]. To commence on the Deh Loran plain in the north-westernmost zone of Elamite habitation in Khuzestan, surveys have brought to light a series of settlements along the border of the alluvial slopes that were established shortly after the outset of the first millennium (Wright and Neely 2010: 114). Neo-Elamite sherds were collected particularly around the mound of Tepe Patak and at ‘Ain Kosh and Garan, although the typical lowland (Susiana) ceramic types were recog- nised only for the later part of the period (ca. seventh-sixth centuries) (Miros- chedji 1981c: 170, 174; Carter and Wright 2010: 15). The regular distribution of these three sites from east to west approximately 16–17 km apart points to a transport route along the northeastern slopes of the plain (Wright 2010: 91).1 Just to the south, the Susiana plain, which is still dotted today with ancient tells, extends out from the alluvial plains of lower Mesopotamia.

  • Shahsavan, Die Nomaden Des Nordwest-Iran
    DAS TEPPICHMAGAZIN Shahsavan, 2/99 die Nomaden des Nordwest-Iran EDITORIAL Neue Beiträge im Teppichmagazin «torba» Seit dem April 1993 erscheint nun das Teppichmagazin «torba». In 14 Folgen berichteten wir im Gefäss «Auf den Spuren der Nomaden» über das Leben, die Sitten, die Bräuche, die Nöte und Sorgen der Nomaden. Wir begleiteten die Nomaden von der Geburt bis zum Tod. In verschiedenen Ausgaben präsentierten wir die verschiedenen Zeltformen mit ihren Inneneinrichtungen. Sicher gäbe es noch viel Interessantes und Nennenswertes über diese Hirtenvölker zu berichten. Trotzdem verlassen wir dieses Thema und berichten ab der Ausgabe 1/2000 auf den Seiten 22 und 23 über «orientalische Basare und Märkte». Wir wollen einen Einblick in das fremdartige, geheimnisvolle Leben des Geschäftsalltags im Morgenland, in die exotisch bunte Verkaufswelt vermitteln. Das farbige Bild der Basare bestimmen die Händler, die Kunsthandwerker und ihre Waren. Jeder Basar hat seine Eigenart, seine Spezialität, die wir erläutern. Wir möchten Ihnen Geräusche, Farben und Gerüche aufzeigen. Ich freue mich darauf. Die Mitglieder des Verbandes hatten die Gelegenheit, in der «Galerie» spezielle Stücke zu präsentieren. Leider wurde diese Möglichkeit zu wenig genutzt. Ab dieser Ausgabe finden Sie das neue Gefäss «Schaufenster». Der Orientteppichmarkt ist im steten Wandel. Die Hersteller sind bemüht, sich dem Markt zu stellen. Neue Qualitäten und Muster erwarten uns an den internationalen Messen. Kaum ist ein neuer und guter Teppich auf dem Markt, wird er auch schon von Nachknüpfländern oder Mitkonkurrenten in minderer Qualität kopiert. Wir als Vermittler sind gefordert und versuchen das Beste vom grossen Angebot auszulesen. Mit der neuen zweiseitigen Reportage präsentieren wir Ihnen das aktuell Neue und Gute.

Hosseinie* Abstract The second part of the revision of Deronectes SHARP, 1882, provides synonymy, a key for determination, and descriptions and distributional data for the species of the D. parvicollis-group. This group is divided into the D. parvicollis-, D. afghanicus-, D. longipes- and D. y'aec7z/-subgroups. Fourteen species are described as new: Deronectes balkei sp.n., Deronectes bilioni sp.n., Deronectes brancuccii sp.n., Deronectes elmii sp.n., Deronectes hendrichi sp.n., and Deronectes youngi sp.n. from Iran, Deronectes danielssoni sp.n. and Deronectes roberti sp.n. from Afghanistan, Deronectes evelynae sp.n. and Deronectes hebaueri sp.n. from Turkey, Deronectes riberai sp.n. from Turkey and Iraq, Deronectes kinzelbachi sp.n. from Turkey and Syria, Deronectes palaestinus sp.n. from Syria, and Deronectes bameuli sp.n. from Pakistan. Therefore genus Deronectes now con- tains 53 species in total. Deronectes parvicollis (SCHAUM, 1864) is newly recorded from Macedonia, Armenia, Georgia and Iran, and Deronectes abnormicollis SEMENOW, 1900, is recorded from China for the first time (see also FERY & BRANCUCCI 1997: 220).

Each paper has a reference number and is supplied with annotations, giving the localities and time of year where the bird observations had been made. These localities are also listed on a separate website (www.wesca.net/podoces/podoces.html), supplied with coordinates and the reference number. With help of these coordinates and the original publications an historical atlas of bird distribution in Iran can be made. A few preliminary examples of such maps are included. Many authors also collected bird specimens in Iran, either to support their identifications or in order to enravel subspecies taxonomy of the birds of Iran.

  • «Ho Posto Qui Il Mio Nome»: Tre Mattoni Con Iscrizione Elamica Del Re Untash-Napirisha (XIV Sec. A.C.) Nella Collezione Burri*
    Gian Pietro Basello «Ho posto qui il mio nome»: tre mattoni con iscrizione elamica del re Untash-Napirisha (XIV sec. a.C.) nella collezione Burri* Tra i reperti della collezione Carla Maria Burri, ora conservata presso il Museo Civico di Crema e del Cremasco, figurano tre mattoni recanti un’iscrizione cuneiforme su una faccia laterale. Questi mattoni rappresentano una testimonianza, tra le pochissime in collezioni italiane, di documenti in elamico, una lingua parlata per due millenni (XXII-V sec. a.C. almeno) nell’Iran sud-occidentale prima che la dinastia achemenide associasse a questo territorio il nome di Persia. Nel testo, identico nei tre mattoni, parla il re medio-elamita Untash-Napirisha (XIV sec. a.C.) attribuendosi il merito della costruzione di una ziqqurat, probabilmente quella di Chogha Zanbil (non lontano dalla città biblica di Susa), dove altri mattoni con la stessa iscrizione sono stati ritrovati in situ nella muratura. INSULA FULCHERIA 369 Dall’Egitto alla Babilonia Tra i materiali raccolti da Carla Maria Burri (1935-2009) ve ne sono alcuni che ci spingono ad andare oltre l’Egitto, risalendo l’entroterra del Mediterraneo sud-orientale fino a incrociare una delle vie del deserto che portava, e che tuttora porta via terra, in Mesopotamia. Raggiunto l’Eufrate, la Babilonia offre diverse possibilità per una tappa. Era da qui, tra l’Eufrate e il Tigri, che il re Burna-Buriash II (1354-1328 a.C.1) della dinastia cassita interrogava uno dei messaggeri del faraone Napkhururia: «La terra di mio fratello, il grande re, è lontana o vicina?» (EA 7:26-27: a-na a-ḫi-ia | LUGAL GAL ma-tum ru-uq-tu-ú i-ba-aš-ši ù ki-ru-ub-tum i-ba-aš-ši).2 La doman- da era polemica, in quanto Burna-Buriash stava lamentando il mancato invio di un biglietto di auguri di pronta guarigione da parte di suo “fratello” il faraone.
