Greater Khorasan

Beschreibung

Khorasan, “Lands of the East”, refers to the northeastern region of Iran. In the early Islamic period, the term “Khorasan” came to be used for a much larger area, reaching into Central Asia well beyond the Oxus river, encompassing large parts of northern Afghanistan, and even extending to southeastern Iran. This volume brings together state-of-the art research on the history, geography, archaeology, and the material culture of this vast region.
