Abstract
ABSTRACT Subterranean rock-cut architecture is a known and frequently used type of architecture in Iran and the world. This type of architecture is documented with residential, defensive and ritual characteristics and was introduced and well studied in different parts of Iran. Recently, one of the such architectural features was excavated in the Tayhaq region of Markazi province in Iran. This subterranean rock-cut architecture was investigated in 2014. Apart from revealing various architectural spaces, its excavation provided important assemblages of small finds such as ceramic and metal vessels, gold personal ornaments, etc. The site was apparently in use only during the twelfth and thirteenth century AD before it was permanently abandoned. The main purpose of this paper is to provide a look into the excavated assemblages from the site.
