ABSTRACT In 1978 a Canadian archaeological mission conducted one season of excavation at the fire temple of Gach Dawar with the main focus of the operation on four ancillary rooms added to the exterior of the main Chahar Taq. The programme was terminated in 1979 by the onset of the Iranian revolution. The new excavation in 2007 re-examined the rooms originally exposed by the Canadian mission, as well as working in the heart of the Chahar Taq and other adjacent rooms. The discovery of a number of cult installations within the Chahar Taq explicitly indicates that the building was designed as a fire temple. The structural layout and the pottery recovered from the building imply an original construction dating to Sasanian times, four building phases identified. The presence of the Islamic material excavated can be explained as reuse of the building in subsequent periods.

伊朗西部 Gach Dawar 的萨珊火神庙：新证据

摘要 1978 年，加拿大考古队对 Gach Dawar 火神庙进行了一个季度的挖掘，主要重点是在主 Chahar Taq 的外部增加了四个附属房间。该计划于 1979 年因伊朗革命的爆发而终止。2007 年的新发掘重新检查了加拿大代表团最初暴露的房间，以及在查哈尔塔克和其他相邻房间的中心工作。在查哈尔塔克中发现的一些邪教装置明确表明该建筑被设计为一座火神庙。结构布局和从建筑中回收的陶器暗示着可追溯到萨珊时代的原始建筑，确定了四个建筑阶段。
