Atlas on Ancient Iranian Silverware Under Compilation

 

 

 

19 September 2005

Compilation of a comprehensive atlas on ancient Iranian silverware is currently underway, a project official said.

Quoting Majid Qazian as one of the officials in charge of the project, "Iran Daily" English-language newspaper wrote Monday that the scheme is sponsored by Iranian Cultural Heritage and Tourism Organization's Research Center.

Qazian further said that information has been compiled from different institutions in the past several years to identify ancient Iranian silver works and antiquities.

According to him, the atlas contains information about the discovery of silver ore, exploiting silver mines, processing the ore and making silverware.

The book would outline the general procedure for processing silver and manufacturing silverware.

It would provide a list of sliver antiquities and serve as a reference for future studies.
