| Σύνοψη: | The present survey is the result of a review of the historical areas of Dehgolan and Ghorveh plains, Kurdistan. The purpose of this survey is to hypothesise, realise and draw up a settlement pattern for the Sassanid Era in the abovementioned areas, to study the Sassanid pottery there, and also to draw a map of Sassanid settlement, in order to contribute to the development of the knowledge and documentation of Sassanid pottery. Based on studies of the ceramics collected from 49 areas, 31 areas were distinguished as related to the Sassanid era. It seems that most of the areas were inhabited in several consecutive periods or at intervals by the Sassanids. Most of these people were permanent inhabitants of these areas. A great number of the ceramics obtained from these settlements are comparable with the Sassanid pottery of western Iran and can be considered part of the continuum of the pottery tradition of the previous Parthian era. Furthermore, most of these areas are located at c. 1 km away from rivers or other water resources, such as springs, and on gentle slopes on the hillside, which indicates the importance of water resources and the use of land with much lower gradient for agricultural purposes in this era. |
