Abstract

This paper examines the formation of Shiraz historic fabric in response to its lifelines by employing a methodology that could be replicated in studies of other cities, as well. For this purpose, (i) the formation of alleys in response to topography and irrigation network is explained; and (ii) the impact of the irrigation network on formation of key monuments is reviewed. The subterranean and surface channels of an important irrigation network Kheirat Qanat- is followed between ca 13 century AD to ca 19 century AD as a case demonstrating this paper’s hypotheses. To this end, a literature review ascertains the gravitational direction of irrigation channels. Then, a hypothetical network of alleys is developed based on topography and the irrigation network. This yields a hypothetical direction for water flow connecting key monuments built in 13 century. Reference to existing documentation verifies the existence of a water aqueduct, while a field visit reveals remnants of its flow. The location of later monuments is thus explained by continuation or disruption of this hypothetical water channel.
