This paper discusses the emergence of an archaeology of the contemporary era in a Middle Eastern country, Iran. Far from North America and Europe, where the subfield was introduced, appreciated and developed by academic archaeologists, this archaeology is now also becoming established in Iran in spite of academic reluctance and (indirect) political pressure. The most encouraged form of archaeology in Iran remains nationalist and conservative, supported by the current political structures. However, the archaeology of the contemporary past is increasingly practised on a limited scale and has gradually extended its scope and subjects. Highly dependent on context, it has enriched the ways and methods of archaeological practice under dictatorship. The archaeology of the contemporary past is still in its infancy in the Middle East, but the pioneers of the subfield try to take up the challenges of smoothing the way for the future of this interdisciplinary archaeology in Iran and the Middle East. Iranian contemporary archaeology not only aims to investigate conflict, tensions and political (and armed) opposition, but also studies everyday life and disastrous contexts.

未完待续的叙述。关于伊朗当代历史考古学的一些评论

本文讨论了当代考古学在中东国家伊朗的出现。远离学术考古学家引入、欣赏和发展该子领域的北美和欧洲,尽管学术不情愿和(间接)政治压力,这一考古学现在也在伊朗建立起来。在当前政治结构的支持下,伊朗最受鼓励的考古形式仍然是民族主义和保守主义。然而,当代过去的考古学越来越多地在有限的范围内实践,并逐渐扩大其范围和主题。高度依赖语境,丰富了专政下考古实践的方式和方法。当代过去的考古学在中东仍处于起步阶段,但该子领域的先驱们试图迎接挑战,为伊朗和中东这一跨学科考古学的未来铺平道路。伊朗当代考古学不仅旨在调查冲突、紧张局势和政治(和武装)反对派,还研究日常生活和灾难性背景。
