Abstract
On September 2012, the Iranian-Italian Joint Expedition in Khuzistan started a preliminary survey at Kal-e Chendar, in the valley of Shami (Iranian Khuzistan), a site investigated in 1936 by Aurel Stein after the accidental discovery of a well-known bronze statue portraying a Parthian nobleman, and never visited again. It was potentially one of the most important religious places of Hellenistic and Parthian Elymais, and this is confirmed by the present survey, which revealed the presence of monumental terraces built in undressed stones, decayed structures, and tombs over an area extending about 50 ha.
