BUSHEHR (Dispatches)-Archaeologists have uncovered the ruins of an ancient civilization in Iran’s southern province of Bushehr that date back to the 5th millennium BC.
According to director general of the Cultural Heritage, Handcraft and Tourism Department of Bushehr Province, Naser Amirzadeh, "this historical site was discovered in Tahamachi hill area, located three kilometres west of the village of Ameri, in the port city of Deylam.”
The site consists of many big knolls, each up to 6 meters high, located on an open plain.
After excavation of the knoll slopes, archaeologists unearthed several artifacts from what appears to be an ancient civilization, including beige earthenware dishes with designs colored brown, dark green and black.
The other objects discovered in the Tahmachi hill site include stone tools and human bones.
More than one thousand historical monuments including historical buildings and objects have been discovered in Bushehr province, of which 294 tangible ones and 53 intangible works have been registered on the National Heritage List.

This is so interesting,
Iran has been home to many historic empires and been at cross roads of Middle East, Europe and Asia.

I hope to learn, maybe someone can point out some proper documentaries.
