Compared to the better known Mesopotamia, we have very little information about religious and mythological systems of the Ira� nian Iron Age populations. In the lack of textual and evidence, archaeological finds from excavations are very helpful in reconstruction of ideological systems of the ancient societies. In this context, the author examines three architectural decorative elements commonly used in the Iron Age temples of Zagros region and central Plateau of Iran. This study suggests that the use of painted bricks, doors and small recessed niches during the Iron Age in Iran was inspired by the Mesopotamian religious art mainly practiced in sanctuaries and temples as well as ceremonial buildings probably intended to represent divinity and legitimacy of the monarchs and kings power.

Given the extent of Median territory in Achaemenid and Parthian periods, early historians and Assyriologists in the late 19th and early 20th centuries considered Median realm extending from Zagros mountains to central plateau of Iran. From 1970s onwards, however, a new minimalistic approach to the historical geography of Neo-Assyrian Zagros has appeared and proposed a large Median territory than previously assumed and located Media on the western flanks of Alvand Mountain ranges. The advocates of this minimalistic approach have put limits on the extent of Assyrian dominance in Iran and consider the Alvand as the last spot of Assyrian Armies’ penetration to the east. The present study deals with assessing these contradictory assumptions. We also try to determine the Median boarders and also try to locate the main regions and cities of Media based on the Assyrian written sources.

The site is known for its stone structure, which after its abandonment was deliberately filled with stone and gravel, similarly to Nush-i Jan, before finally being entirely covered by two thick stone and mud brick walls founded by mortar. In the winter of 2006, and under Malekzadeh's supervision, Zar Bolagh was investigated. During the course of excavation the team found valuable architectural elements comparable with other religious monuments in central Iran. This paper presents some preliminary results from the first season of excavation in Zar Bolagh, consisting of cemetery data and architectural remains. According to the pottery assemblage sequence this site can be dated to as early as the Late Iron Age.
