Promotion of LURISTAN STANDARDS – ICONOGRAPHY, SEMIOTICS AND PURPOSE
We are pleased to invite you to the promotion of the new electronic book by Nikos Chausidis
published in two separate editions, in Macedonian and English:
LURISTAN STANDARDS – ICONOGRAPHY, SEMIOTICS AND PURPOSE
ЛУРИСТАНСКИ СТАНДАРДИ – ИКОНОГРАФИЈА, СEМИОТИКА И НАМЕНА
The monographs are published by the Center for Prehistoric Research from Skopje, on whose
website, after the promotion, they will be available for free download.
The name “Luristan standards” refers to a very large and enigmatic group of bronze objects (with
an obvious symbolic i.e. cultic character) that date back to the Late Bronze and Iron Ages. They
were found in the region ofLuristanin western Iran, from where, in the last century, they would
reach almost all major world museums and private collections.
Given the international character of the archaeological objects to which this book is dedicated,
the promotion will be held online, via the video platform ZOOM, on June 1st (Wednesday) at
19:00 CET, freely accessible at the following link:
