From Prehistoric Settlements to the Dawn of Early Empires

Untold Stories of Persian History

Across the Persian Plateau, long before the rise of empires, ancient hands shaped clay, carved temples, built settlements, and imagined worlds that still echo beneath the soil. These early civilizations—older than our written stories, older than our memories—formed one of the world’s most enduring cultural lineages.

Yet much of this pre-Achaemenid heritage remains quiet, overlooked, or forgotten. We believe these early voices deserve to be heard again. Their architecture, their rituals, their artistry, their ways of living and imagining the sacred—each holds a piece of who we are and how human civilization came to be.

We do this work because uncovering these stories is more than research; it is an act of remembrance. By bringing these ancient cultures back into the light, we reconnect a deep and continuous lineage of creativity and knowledge that spans millennia. In sharing them freely with the world, we hope to spark wonder, deepen understanding, and honor the profound legacy of the Persian Plateau.
