They have being threatened by strong development trends. This paper aims to investigate the impacts of redevelopment trends in the historic city of Shiraz, Iran. The paper begins by highlighting historical development in the different periods such as Atabakan, Safaviyeh, Zandiyeh, Qajar and Contemporary period; and then, it investigates types of heritage in Shiraz, and, the impacts of modernization trends on the historic urban area of the city. The purpose of the present study is to investigate some of the problems involved in the conservation of the historic settlements in Iran with particular emphasize to the historic settlement of Shiraz city. This study found that confrontation between strong development trends and urban heritage conservation led to loss of numerous tangible and intangible heritages in Shiraz.

Between Kazerun and Tehran: Iranian Protests in Peripheral Cities
Between Kazerun and Tehran: Iranian Protests in Peripheral Cities Dr. Doron Itzhakov BESA Center Perspectives No. 856, June 5, 2018 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: A number of protests took place recently in Iran that received almost no attention anywhere other than inside the country itself. These events occurred in peripheral cities that suffer from rising unemployment, lack of infrastructure, increases in the cost of living, extreme climatic conditions, and air pollution. These cities are marginalized in Iran's public discourse, which is reflected in an allocation of resources that is not commensurate with the needs of the residents – most of whom are classified as “ethnic minorities”. In those residents’ eyes, government policy is negligent and inattentive to their distress. Large-scale violent demonstrations took place recently in the Iranian city of Kazerun, which is under the jurisdiction of the Fars Province. They were the collective response of residents to publication of a plan for a new administrative division of Fars that intends to remove two densely populated areas from the jurisdiction of the Kazerun municipality and grant them independent status (a sub-province called Koh-Chenar). Underlying the protests is the plight of many residents of the province who have long suffered from difficult working and living conditions. The administrative partition proposal served as a spark that ignited flames of frustration over government neglect. It should be noted that within the area are two sites of religious and historical importance that serve as focal points for pilgrimage and are sources of livelihood for the citizens of Kazerun. The Bishapur site was built by King Shapur I and commemorates the victory of the Sassanian warriors over the Romans in the third century CE. -
Archaeoseismicity of the Mounds and Monuments Along the Kazerun Fault (Western Zagros, Sw Iranian Plateau) Since the Chalcolithic Period
Iranica Antiqua, vol. XLIX, 2014 doi: 10.2143/IA.49.0.3009238 ARCHAEOSEISMICITY OF THE MOUNDS AND MONUMENTS ALONG THE KAZERUN FAULT (WESTERN ZAGROS, SW IRANIAN PLATEAU) SINCE THE CHALCOLITHIC PERIOD BY Manuel BERBERIANa , Cameron A. PETRIEb, D.T. POTTSc, Alireza ASGARI CHAVERDId, Amanda DUSTINGe, Alireza SARDARI ZARCHIf, Lloyd WEEKSg, Parsa GHASSEMIh & Reza NORUZIi (a Ocean County College, USA; b University of Cambridge, UK; c ISAW, NYU, USA; d Shiraz University, Iran; e University of Sydney, Australia; f Iranian Center for Archaeological Research, Iran; g University of Nottingham, UK; h Kohan Diar-e Mehr Archaeological Inst., Shiraz, Iran) Abstract: Our multidisciplinary investigation represents off-fault archaeoseismic indicators recorded in the archaeological remains at mounds and structural ele- ments of monuments situated along the Kazerun fault in the western Zagros Mountains since the Chalcolithic period. The study revealed two large magnitude earthquakes (~Mw >7.0, possibly ~7.3) ca. 3850-3680 BC and ca. 3030 BC with return periods of ~735 +? years at Tol-e Spid. Detecting only two earthquakes during the 4,000 year life span of archaeological mound is incompatible with the 3.6-3.9 slip rate along the Kazerun fault. After a long gap in data, a strong earth- quake indicator is recorded ca. 400-200 BC in Qal’eh Kali; all located to the north of the Kazerun fault bend. On the contrary, in addition to the vandalism episodes during the invasions of the Moslem Arabs (16/637), the Mongol hordes (1219- 1250), and Timur (1370-1405), the structural elements of the royal Sasanid city of Bishapur, located to the south of the fault bend, indicated archaeoseismic indicators of four possible earthquakes within a period of 800 years. -
Morpho-Climatic Classification of Gullies in Fars Province, Southwest of I.R
ISCO 2004 - 13th International Soil Conservation Organisation Conference – Brisbane, July 2004 Conserving Soil and Water for Society: Sharing Solutions MORPHO-CLIMATIC CLASSIFICATION OF GULLIES IN FARS PROVINCE, SOUTHWEST OF I.R. IRAN Majid Soufi Fars Research Center for Agriculture and Natural Resources, Iran, Shiraz, P.O.Box: 71345-1756 Abstract This research is a part of a national research plan, which was conducted in 20 provinces of Iran. The data were collected from watershed departments, historical evidence and field surveying to define the area and distribution of gully erosion. A digital map of 1:250000 scale was created in ILWIS environment to show distribution of gullies. The climate of each region was determined using modified De-Marton classification. In each climate zone, two regions and in each region three representative gullies were selected to measure morphometric and edaphic characteristics. A seven page questionnaire was also filled out for each represent gully. Gullies were divided into similar classes using cluster analysis. The results show that gullies are distributed in sixteen regions with seven climate zone in Fars province, dominantly in the temperate semi-arid climate. The soil texture is sandy-loam and loam in surface and sub-surface layers. The gullies plan view is dendretic and formed in rangeland and dryland farms near villages. The gullies have depths between 1 and 10 meters. Their cross sections are dominantly u- shaped in plains and v-shaped in hilly and mountainous areas. The width/depth ratio varies between 2 and 18 and is higher in cultivated areas. The gullies are divided into three classes based on cluster analysis. -
A Small Intruder
[Vicino Oriente XXIII (2019), pp. 155-184] ISLAMIC CLAY FIGURINES FROM EXCAVATIONS AT ISTAKHR AND A SUGGESTED USE OF THE ANIMAL-SHAPED SPECIMENS* Maria Vittoria Fontana - Serenella Mancini Sapienza University of Rome This paper deals with the Islamic hand-modelled clay figurines from the excavations carried out at Istakhr (Fars region, Iran) by the Oriental Institute of Chicago in the 1930s and the Joint Italian- Iranian Archaeological Mission in 2012. S. Mancini presents detailed descriptions of these artefacts, including some technological notes relating to fabrics, as well as a few comparisons help to propose their chronological attribution. M.V. Fontana suggests that the animal specimens can be understood as figurines which children usually placed on the roofs of their houses pending the end of panjī-mas and to welcome in the New Year at the end of a long-lasting ritual of Zoroastrian tradition, as can also be seen in some Seljuk glazed ceramic “house models”. Keywords: Istakhr; Seljuk period; hand-modelled clay figurines; animal-shaped specimens; ceremony of Zoroastrian tradition 1. THE ISLAMIC HAND-MODELLED CLAY FIGURINES FROM EXCAVATIONS CARRIED OUT IN THE 1930S AND 2012 AT ISTAKHR The archaeological area comprising the mound of the “historical city” of Istakhr is located in the Fars province, roughly 60 km north of Shiraz and approximately 5 km north of Persepolis.1 This contribution discusses an interesting group of fifteen Islamic hand-modelled clay figurines brought to light during excavations carried out at Istakhr in the 1930s and 2012 (figs. 1-4),2 which will be analysed in detail hereafter. 1.1.
