        2 - The Deriving of Modern Memento Writing on Iran’s Rock Arts
        Sirwan Mohammadi Ghasrian

        Beside archaeological rock arts distributed in some parts of Iran, one can see recent engraved memories which motivate this assumption that these rock arts were carved as memories. Interview with some alive hunters who continue the tradition of rock art until today support this hypothesis. Our view about the meaning of Iranian rock art represented in this paper is totally different from Rafiffar’s point of view. He believes in finding the trace of Shamanism in Arasbaran rock art. It is impossible that all Iranian rock arts from prehistoric period to present time were depicted just as a memory. We only believe that this idea is a dominate one. Manuscript profile

        Some rock art sites have been discovered in southeastern Kurdistan and northeastern Qorveh city on the foothill of young volcanic mountains (Siah and Gharineh). Some of its rock art manifestations contain important elements that in terms of work style and morphology are comparable to the petroglyphs of different regions of Iran and other areas of Kurdistan. Some of these carvings have been made in several different periods by overlapping on the boulders. Qorveh motifs include cupules in different styles, linear, single, and group, human motifs in various combinations and modes, including various scenes such as hunting with a bow and arrow, horseman in a hunting mode, group dancing and other various modes, and animal motifs comprising antelope, ram, ewe, deer, gazelle, boar, camel, snake, feliformia and also other animal-like and human-like which have been displayed in graphic and abstract forms as well as geometric shapes and symbols.

        Khorasan as origin of Parthian questionably faces lack of historical remnant of Parthian. Discovering Birjand Kal_i Jangal Parti carved stone and epigraph in 1330 as one of the scant remnants of this era is very significant. In this paper we tried to present a new and spacious analysis of this matter considering all the researches done in this field. Thus considering stone carved that shows battle arena between a warrior and a lion which this kind of arts in ancient Iran before and after Parthian era was rampant, we tried to analyze stone carved comparing with other remnants such as Lakh-i Mazar Parthian and Elymais tang-i Sarvak stone carved. Also we want to investigate politicians perusing titles used in Parthian epigraph from political service aspects. Manuscript profile
