Abstract: (900 Views)
Despite various infrastructures and contexts in which of the Qajar period formed and developed, and diverse approaches adopted to study this late historical period, and the documents and information on later destruction of Qajar monuments, it seems that the Qajar culture has remained unknown in terms of "archaeological investigations", especially regarding "archaeological fieldwork" and its multiple types and interpretations. Nevertheless, the extent, variety, and volume of the surface and subsurface remains from the Qajar period is noticeable. However, apparently, all these characteristics have remained after some administrative-management inquiries from time to time, which are often unsuccessful (and without appreciable impact on the existing knowledge of this period, especially in the country's capital). This article deals with "causes and motivations", "bottlenecks and possibilities" and "strategies and effects" of "the Qajar period archaeology" with a pathological perspective (based on a scientific-cultural event). It also explains the position and analyzes the corrective or affirmative role in recognizing this long one-hundred-and-twenty-year period, which is considered "the first significant period of the intersection of tradition and modernism" in Iran. The latter feature should be considered as another motivating opportunity to honor and value the "archaeology of the Qajar period".
