Giuseppe Zander’s Persepolis Restoration Report in Persian
TEHRAN – (Iranart)- Italian archaeologist Giuseppe Zander’s report on the 1964-1979 restoration of historical monuments in Iran is now available in Persian.
In 1964, a team of Italian restorers in collaboration with the Iranian National Organization for Conservation of Historical Monuments embarked on a program for restoration of historical monuments in Iran which lasted until 1979.
From 1964 to 1972, work at the archaeological site of Persepolis was entrusted to the Italian Institute of the Middle and Far East (ISMEO). Effort was initially concentrated on the gate of All Nations, the halls of Tachara, Hadish, Apadana and the Hall of 100 Columns, as well as the rock-cut tomb of Artexerxes III.
