Tehran, Iran (CHN) – Excavations in the historical site
of Haft Tapeh in the southern province of Khuzestan has led to the discovery of
seven mud tablets in Akkadian cuneifom language.
Iranian and German
archaeologists working in the area are hoping that the new discovery help them
uncover parts of the unknown history of the ancient city of Haft Tapeh.
During the latest season of excavation on the site, which lasted three weeks
and wrapped up recently, few boring pits were made, but a great deal of
artefacts, including the mud inscriptions were unearthed.
The tablets which
are as large as a palm, count up to seven and are written in Akkadian cuneiform,
explained head of the restoration workshop of Haft Tapeh, Hamid Fadae, adding
that they are hopeful that after cleaning the tablets and fortifying their
damaged parts, they would be able to decipher their texts.
The discovery of
mud tablets is considered a major discovery in any archeological site,and their
discovery in Haft Tapeh is evidence of the richness of this site of Khuzestan.
According to Fadae, before the Islamic revolution of 1979 in Iran, some
other tablets were found on the site by Dr. Negahban, forming the basis of
today’s information of the area.
The Haft Tapeh archeological site is
located 2 kilometers from The Ziggurat of Choghazanbil, dating to some four
thousand years ago.
