Résumé
This article reports on the 2016 activities of the second campaign of the ongoingIran-France archaeological project at Pasargadae and its surroundings. The main goal ofthis project is to reveal and analyze the Achaemenid cityscape and regional managementintegrated into the long occupation history of the area. In 2016, new insights on the site andits territory were provided by data coming from newly implemented approaches: surfaceceramics analyses, aerial survey and remote sensing, and palaeoenvironmental studies. Wealso extended our large-scale mapping of the site through combined topographic andgeophysical survey approaches. The systematic mapping of the archaeological landscape,settlement pattern and funerary remaining around the site was also continued. We alsopresent some preliminary results of pollen and sediment analyses of the filling deposits inthe large basin which delaminates the Pasargadae Royal Garden to the southeast.
