- W2477442913 abstract "In his History of the Persian Empire, A.T. Olmstead (1948) casts some light, albeit extremely feeble and obscured, on the existence of Iran’s pre-Achaemenid indigenous peoples and their civilization. Although faithfully following the conventional Eurocentric and Orientalist tradition, he does dare to venture into the annals of forgotten histories and pay some lip service to the lives and civilizations of peoples who existed prior to the migration of Aryan/Indo-European tribes to “the great plateau.” Considering the existing “conspiracy of silence” on the topic by both Orientalist and the official nationalist/local historiographies, Olmstead’s fleeting allusion to Iran’s indigenous peoples is in itself a sort of risk taking, and hence admirable: Long before the great plateau was called Iran it was well populated. Obsidian flakes have been found under the alluvial deposits from the last glacial period, while men of the late Stone Age left their flint implements in the open. By the fifth pre-Christian millennium, numerous tiny hamlets sheltered a peaceful agricultural population, which satisfied its aesthetic instincts through fine wheel-made pots decorated with superb paintings; an elaborate though lively conventionalization of native flora and fauna betrayed more interest for all subsequent art on the plateau. (Olmstead, 1948, p. 16)" @default.
