How interesting! The true shame is how these great Kurdish archaeological sites and heritages are credited to Turks, Arabs or Persians and how Kurds and their tremendously rich history is completely sidelines and excluded!

This reminded me of an old article by Dr. Izady (Kurdistan, Where Historical Credit is Due http://www.kurdistanica.com/?q=node/146). In one paragraph, he writes: '...Yet for the past three generations it has been in Kurdistan where archaeologists have been excavating to find evidence for the invention and development of the technologies that transformed man-the-hunter into man-the-farmer and ultimately into man-the-civilized. It is as if the Kurdish mountains and their inhabitants could not possibly have been the site of technologies of such significance, despite irrefutable evidence that they themselves unearthed. Almost instinctively, archaeologists have been reluctant to attribute origins to the original inhabitants of Kurdistan. Instead, they continue to search for external originating sources, at times with a measure of desperation. When such a source eludes them, they tend to list the originating culture as "unknown." By contrast, when evidence is found in other loci of civilization, as in Mesopotamia, Egypt or Greece, for example, it is automatically attributed to these cultures until proven otherwise.'
