Summary "This book contains papers representing the results of the latest research into the relationship between the 'Imperial' culture of the Achaemenids and local traditions. Some of them are devoted to the Southern Caucasus, especially to the latest archaeological excavations and to investigations into specific categories of archaeological finds. Other articles concern different regions of the Achaemenid world. The article by L. Summerer introduces a unique work of art: the painting on one of the walls of a wooden tomb in Tatarli in Western Anatolia, depicting a battle between Persians and warriors of nomadic (Scythian-Saka) appearance. The article by S. Sajjadi presents readers with the results of interesting research in the region of Sistan."--Jacket
