介绍（中）	这个圆锥形的罐子来自波斯波利斯附近的一个叫做Tall-i Bakun A.的遗址，1932年在现场进行的挖掘发现了大量的史前陶器，其中大部分是完整的，未损坏的容器的形式仍然在储藏室中，这表明这个村庄在古代被匆忙遗弃了。与石器时代（约公元前5500-3000年）伊朗的许多陶器一样，来自Tall-i Bakun A的陶瓷在形式和装饰上都非常多样化，证明了早期工匠的技能和创造力。像这样的圆锥形容器是最精细的，几乎蛋壳薄的壁和清晰的几何装饰。一组锥形杯子存放在现场的一个房间里，其中一些相互嵌套，这表明它们被用作一套。尖锐的锥形端不允许它同时站立和容纳液体，因此它必须在使用时保持。Tall-i Bakun A的其他显着发现包括石印章印章和带有印章印章的粘土块，这表明这些印章不仅是个人物品，也是管理工具。换句话说，它们被用来表明储存在容器内的商品的所有权，方法是用粘土块密封容器，并在这些粘土块上标记印章印记。
介绍（英）	This cone-shaped pot comes from a site near Persepolis called Tall-i Bakun A. Excavations conducted at the site in 1932 uncovered large amounts of prehistoric pottery, much of it in the form of complete, undamaged vessels still in place in storerooms, suggesting that the village was hastily abandoned in the ancient past. Like much of the pottery from Iran in the Chalcolithic Period (ca. 5500-3000 B.C.), ceramics from Tall-i Bakun A are remarkably varied in both form and decoration, attesting to the skill and creativity of the artisans in this early period. Conical vessels such as this one are among the most finely made, with almost eggshell-thin walls and crisply painted geometric decoration. A group of conical cups was stored in one room at the site with some nested in each other, suggesting they were used as a set. The sharply tapered end would not allow it to stand and hold liquid at the same time, so it must have been held while in use. Other remarkable finds from Tall-i Bakun A include stone stamp seals and lumps of clay that had been impressed with stamp seals, suggesting that the seals were not only personal objects but also administrative tools. In other words, they were used to indicate ownership of commodities stored within containers, by sealing the containers with lumps of clay and marking those clay lumps with a stamp seal impression.
