Abstract

Kal-e Chendar is located in the Izeh mountainous area of Khuzestan, north of the Plain of Susa, at the edge of the Mesopotamian plain, north-east of the Persian Gulf. During the excavations of the remains of a monumental Hellenistic and Parthian terraced complex, some trenches yielded a few prehistoric chipped stone artefacts. The lithic artefacts from Kal-e Chendar show technological and typological characteristics similar to those of the Late Upper Palaeolithic (LUP) assemblages of the Izeh area.
