Sasanian Clay Sealings In The Bandar Abbas Museum (2819) (Bar International)

This book presents the newly discovered assemblage of 800 Sasanianclay sealings which is now kept in the Persian Gulf Museum of Bandar Abbas,Iran. In 2012, this collection was confiscated in Bandar Khamir, HormozganProvince when in transit from Iran to UAE, and was delivered to the HormozganCenter of Cultural Heritage Organization. Unfortunately the provenance of thecollection is still unknown, but in comparison with the large Sasanian archivesof Qasr- ? Abu Nasr and Taxt- i Soleyman, which comprise 505and 241 clay sealings, respectively, such a large number of clay sealings isremarkable. The book introduces this new and hitherto unpublished archive ofSasanian clay sealings and we hope that the archive in question will expand ourknowledge of Sasanian economic systems.
