This volume brings together articles that present, comment on and interpret primary sources from the Sasanian and post-Sasanian periods. The objects and documents treated in this volume are of recent appearance. Some come from official excavations like the bullae of Takt-e Solayman, but the majority has come through the antiquities trade. One article deals with texts and objects from the Sasanian period, as well as Central Asian ethnography. The second reading of the documents of the Archive of Tabarestan, as well as their juridical commentary, which started in 2016, is completed with this volume. This original, and meticulous, work enables us to add to our knowledge of legal vocabulary and Sasanian law.
