EDUCATION
I studied multidisciplinary social
sciences independently from 1979 - 1990, when, because of the Islamization of
the education system, the universities were closed in Iran for four years (1979
– 1983).
In the Netherlands, I followed different Dutch language, PC-programs, and administration courses at the Delft University of Technology (1990 - 1994).
RESEARCH INTEREST
Research field: Ancient Near
Eastern, Eastern Mediterranean, and Southern Black Sea region civilizations
from the earliest times until the rise of Islam.
Interdisciplinary comparative
research in archaeology, cultural stratigraphy, epigraphy, philology,
philosophy, ethnography, and the Bible
RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
I researched continuously archaeological sources
all over the different universities.
