This paper deals with the stucco merlon uncovered by D. Whitehouse at Siraf in 1969, currently on view in the Gallery of Islamic Art at The British Museum in London, which has not yet been fully studied. On the basis of both its decorative and technical aspects, as well as the context in which it was found, its manufacturing likely relates to the main reconstruction works - carried out at Siraf after the devastating earthquake of 977 - characterised by the introduction of a new local moulded stucco production.

Abstract
This paper deals with the stucco merlon uncovered by D. Whitehouse at Siraf in 1969, currently on view in the Gallery of Islamic Art at The British Museum in London, which has not yet been fully studied. On the basis of both its decorative and technical aspects, as well as the context in which it was found, its manufacturing likely relates to the main reconstruction works - carried out at Siraf after the devastating earthquake of 977 - characterised by the introduction of a new local moulded stucco production.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
