About the Project

This project aims to create an interactive digital atlas of the archaeological evidence relating to the Greek presence in Iran and to Iranian-Greek cultural interactions, spanning the Achaemenid to the Sasanian period.

In the present initial phase, a collection of relevant vestiges and critical assessments is being assembled. A GIS platform will eventually facilitate a variety of research questions across disciplines.

The project seeks to apply on a larger scale the diachronic, multidisciplinary perspectives embraced in the 1st International Conference Ancient Greece and Ancient Iran: Cross-Cultural Encounters.
