Takhté Soleymān
Historical Site of Mirhadi Hoseini http://m-hosseini.ir ……………………………………………………………………………………… Takhté Soleymân Azar Goshnasp Fire-Temple Complex By Professor Dietrich Huff Takht-e Soleymân is an outstanding archeological site with substantial Sasanian and Il-khanid ruins in Azarbaijan province, between Bijâr and Šâhin-dež, about 30 km north-northeast of Takâb, with about 2, 200 m altitude, surrounded by mountain chains of more than 3000 m altitude. The place was obviously chosen for its natural peculiarity; an outcrop of limestone, about 60 m above the valley, built up by the sediments of the overflowing calcinating water of a thermal spring-lake (21° C) with about 80 m diameter and more than 60 m depth on the top of the hill (Damm). The place is mentioned in most of the medieval Oriental chronicles (e.g., Ebn Khordâdbeh, pp. 19, 119 ff.; Tabari, p. 866; Nöldeke, p. 100, n. 1; Bel'ami, p. 942, tr., II, p. 292; Ebn al-Faqih, pp. 246, 286; Mas'udi, ed. Pellat, sec. 1400, tr., IV, pp. 74 f; idem, Tanbih, p. 95; Abu Dolaf, pp. 31 ff.; Ferdowsi, pp. 111 ff.; Yâqut, Beirut, III, pp. 383-84, tr., pp. 367 ff; Qazvini, II, pp. 267; Hamd-Allâh Mostawfi, p. 64, tr., p. 69, who attributes its foundation to the Kayanid Kay Khosrow) and was visited and described repeatedly by western travelers and scholars since the 19th century (e.g., Ker Porter, pp. 557 ff.; Monteith, pp. 7 ff.; Rawlinson, pp. 46 ff.; Houtum Schindler, pp. 327 f.; Jackson, 1906, pp. 124 ff.). It was erroneously taken for a second Ecbatana (q.v.) by Henry Rawlinson, and defective Byzantine sources caused it to be confused with the great Atropatenian city of Ganzak (q.v.) and other places (Minorsky).

The phenomenon of duality has been seen less in the geomorphology field. There exist some contradictory phenomena in nature, but further investigation can show their correlation clearly. Durability can be considered as a better dynamic entropy. In this research, radar interferometry technique has been used in Yazd-Bahadoran area and the amount of subsidence and uplifting has been investigated Through field and library studies and the results have been compared with the other researchers' studies, which is a new concept in the literature of geomorphology under geo-duality. The study results indicate that the main reason for the subsidence was not to cut down the level of groundwater, and in this regard the tectonic movements play a significant role. Also, the study shows a significant relationship between subsidence in the Bahadoran plain and the collapse in adjacent heights in terms of duality or dichotomy.

The History of Human Dwelling on Plains Coincides with the Chronicle of the Recognition and Utilization of Mud for Building the Primal Human Habitats
The history of human dwelling on plains coincides with the chronicle of the recognition and utilization of mud for building the primal human habitats. Water and soil as the most accessible materials and the mélange of these two - the mud -_has made it possible for the ancient communities of human to reside on plains. 1 The first tokens of such settlements in the central plateau of Iran dates back to 8000 BC. Shaped-up masses of mud set beside each other to construct the first human habitats. Ganj-Darreh in Kermanshah, Ozbaki near Tehran and Zagheh in Dashteh-Ghazvin are places in which proofs of remnants of such endeavors to primitive dwelling places have been found. Although ten thousand years has passed since the first settlements were constructed, the mud is still used as the suitable bonding agent, inexpensive and available material which has materialized the comfort and repose of the Iranians in a span of millennia. The result of such continuity in the usage of mud and sun-dried mud-bricks in a period of ten thousand years has been houses, temples, prayer-houses, castles, palaces, and several towns which still exist in this land. These are the symbols of the history of this nation. Over %60 of the residential space of village and city limits of the Iranian plateau are still made up of mud. Such density of usable mud area is a national wealth which is not easily replaceable. Application of mud and dried mud-brick in buildings is a confinement. Mud-brick lacks traction resistance and can only bear weight forces to a limited extent.

Local Architecture: Using Traditional Persian Elements to Design for Climate in Yazd, Iran
Local Architecture: Using Traditional Persian Elements to Design for Climate in Yazd, Iran by Sepideh Sohrabi Mollayousef A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Architecture in M. Architecture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2015 Sepideh Sohrabi Mollayousef 1 ABSTRACT The aim of this thesis is to research and study vernacular architecture in Yazd. Additionally, this study will explore the social and environmen- tal bases of the traditional Yazdi house. In order to develop a cohesive understanding of contemporary issues in Iranian design, a variety of resource materials will be drawn on, including journal articles, reports, books, and field studies. The thesis will culminate in a project to design a large-scale master plan and schematic housing layouts for a residential complex at Yazd University that will house professors and their immedi- ate family members. 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost I would like to express my gratitude to my supervi- sor, Prof. Johan Voordouw, who has supported me with his patience and knowledge whilst allowing me to develop my research. Also I would like to offer special thanks to my committee chair, Dr. Fed- erica Goffi, for her offered guidance, care and support. I also want to thank Dr. Inderbir Singh Riar and Marjan Ghannad for serving on my graduate committee. I would like to thank my father, Dr. Teymour Sohrabi, and dear mother, Fariba Zamani Sani, for each providing me with love, encouragement and support. Special thanks go to my amazing sister, Sara, who has provided inexhaustible love, support and encouragement.

The arrival of modernism to Iran has influenced the spatial organization of Tehran since the late Qajar era. To clarify these changes, the present study aims to compare Isfahan style and Tehran style to show the evolution of squares from the Safavid to the first Pahlavi era. This study was performed in an interpretative- historical method and focused on squares in two styles of Isfahan and Tehran. In this study, Inductive and comparative approaches and the case studies of each style were used for interpretations and conclusions.
