Abstract
(en) The Neo-Elamite period spans the centuries from the fall of the powerful Middle Elamite Šutrukid dynasty (ca. 1100 BCE) to the rise of the Achaemenid Persian empire (520 BCE) and represents a time of rapid development in southwest Iran characterized by an increasing cultural diversity and political vitality. A review of this fascinating chapter of Elamite history herein commences with a Neo-Elamite periodisation and a presentation of its dynastic sequences. It then introduces the reader to the various sites that have produced material evidence for this period of southwestern Iran’s history and finishes with a brief commentary on Neo-Elamite society.
