Abstract:
\nThe application of innovative ways of thinking about human communities and new techniques of excavation and analysis have given us different perspectives on the earliest Iranian economic and political formations, from those of Palaeolithic peoples to those of the early empires. Ezat Negahban and his students have shown the benefits of such broader approaches in their studies of Chalcolithic and early Iron Age peoples in the valleys of the north of iran and of the Middle Elamite peoples of the southwest. In this paper, we offer, as another example of such integrative research, a similarly broad perspective on a Late Chalcolithic society in the foothills of the Zagros Mountains. We have chosen to summarize a particular archaeological manifestation, the Farukh Phase of the mid-fifth millennium BC on the Deh Luran Plain, one whixh enables us to criticize our own methods, and to suggest improved approches for the future.<\/p>\n
