Abstract

Unlike the Zagros and Alborz mountains, except for few cases, our information about Paleolithic of Central Plateau of Iran is limited to accidental discovery of some open air sites and few rock shelters. A quick look to the known sites of the central plateau of Iran shows that they are mostly yielded scattered surfaces materials and, like other open air sites, contain no archeological deposit. This caused little knowledge on the Paleolithic archaeology which is merely limited to techno typological futures of the surface artifacts, while other aspects such as cultural characteristics, settlement patterns and environmental settings are unknown in the region. Therefore, newly discovered site of QALEH KURD CAVE with MIDDLE PALEOLITHIC remains in the Southwestern mountainous region of QAZVIN province is very important and noteworthy. The preliminary analysis of the collected chipped stones from the surface of the site indicates the presence of Levallois technique and MOUSTERIAN products. Illegal pits inside the cave show more than 2.5 meters of Paleolithic sediment deposited in the entrance - of the cave indicating the importance and high potential of the site for excavation.
