Pre-Parsi style (Iranian architecture)

Pre-Parsi style (Iranian architecture)

The "Pre parsi style" (شیوه معماری پیش از پارسی) is a style ("sabk") of architecture when categorizing the history of Iranian architecture development.

The oldest remains of architectural elements in the Iranian plateau is the Teppe Zagheh, near Qazvin. Elamite and proto-elamite buildings are also covered within this category.

Other extant examples of this style are Chogha zanbil, Sialk, Shahr-i Sokhta, and Ecbatana.
