  1. Dear Mr. khosronejad:

    As an Iranian (Bakhtiari), I have been residing in the
    United States since 1978. This is the first time that
    research of this type has been undertaken among a
    nomadic tribal group.

    Since I have traveled to visit the Bakhtiaries in
    different parts of Chahr mahal,Bazoft (Zrd koh),
    Isfahan, and Northern Khuzestan many times, I would
    like to find out the real motive that encouraged you
    to follow this research project, which is a pilot
    study of cemeteries and funeral culture among the
    nomadic Bakhtiyari in northern Khuzestan. I am also
    curious and want to learn about the results of your
    research about Lion tombstones, a field which until
    now has remained relatively unknown.

    If I can be of any assistance, please do not hesitate
    to contact me at (480) 706-6372 or (480) 861-9864 or
    via my e-mail address at norsyh@yahoo.com.

    Thank you very much for your time and your kindness in
    the important matter.

  2. Hello,

    Are you people really speaking about Bazoft? I can hardly believe; teh place looked so tiny when I was there. Can somebody tell me more about it?

    Greetings,
