Full textHadda is the name of a modern village of Afghanistan, located twelve miles south of Jellalabad and built on the ruins of a pre-Islamic city, on which depended a great Buddhist monastery. The earliest remains are dated from the second century AD and a generalized fire destroyed the site around the ninth century AD, during the Muslim rise. Dozens of monasteries were found, with hundreds of stupa and a huge amount of niches and caitya (chapels) carved in Greco-Buddhist style : mostly clay and stucco modelings, as well as limestone and schist sculptures, and a few paintings. The scientific purpose of this study is multiple, for while setting Hadda monastic art within Gandhara art, it helps to highlighting several features of this school: the massive use of modeling generates a new method of three-dimensional composition, and the appearance of scenes not representing specific episode of Buddha’s canonical legend, thus completing the decoration of the monastery by creating a particular atmosphere or evoking an episode in a symbolic way. The combination of the talent and creativity of the modeling school of Hadda resulting in an art both traditional and canonical, but also daring and original, explains an influence that can be followed across Kapisa and Bactria, through Bamiyan and to Chinese Central Asia

Full textA typological and comparative study on about 5 tons of sherds of pottery collected on almost 800 sites in n. E. Afghanistan is the basis of this proposal on the history of settlement in the area, from chalcolithic (around 3500 b. C. ) to the islamic conquest (around 750 a. D. ). Relying also on the distribution of this settlement within each period, it has been possible to distinguish different phases of expansion and decline. Among the major results of this study, we may mention : the discovery of extremely tight cultural ties with baluchistan and n. W. India -and not with the rest of central asia- during the chalcolithic and the bronze age, which allows to suppose that the area of the survey does not belong to ancient bactria but rather to sogdiana ; the location of nomads known only through texts until now, at the end of the bronze age (aryens ?), at the fall of the graeco-bactrian kingdom (yueh-chi and scythians), and between the end of the 3rd and the 56th c. A. D. (chionites, kidarites and hephtalites) ; the establishment of a huge and mighty bactrian "kingdom" during the 1st millenium b. C. , well before the conquest of the achaemenids ; the particular expansion of "eastern bactria" under the greeks, around the city of ai khanum ; the evidence of an unsuspected decline in the same area under the kushans, which was recovered only after the sassanian conquest in the middle of the 3rd c. A. D. ; the location of tokharistan at the time of its formation under the hephtalites, east of the kunduz river and south of the taluqan river

Full textThe Sistan is a semi-desert area located between the east of Iran and the west of Afghanistan. The territory has been continuously inhabited since prehistorical times. Therefore European and American scholars turned their attention to it from the early 20th century on a time of intense exploration of Central Asia. The French archaeological Delegation in Iran (DAFI), created in 1900, then the French archaeological Delegation in Afghanistan (DAFA), created in 1923, had an official monopoly which included the Sistan. Nevertheless German, British, Italian and American missions surveyed the area before and after the World War Two. Some sites, which seemed particularly promising, were excavated. In 1984 Iran and Afghanistan closed their doors to archaeologists for political reasons, and stopped temporarily all work. During 80 years, on a same area, individuals who had a complex status succeeded one another and often crossed each other. They all represented a state and one or many institutions. They came with practices, methods, and doxas specific to a scientific community. This study analyses their relations, to include their complexity. To what extent did they influence each other? Were they in competition in the name of a nation or an institution? Did they try to cooperate? Did they collaborate for a mutual, “universal”, purpose? After a global presentation of the works made in Sistan, the study examines more specifically the French and German relationships. Then it describes the development of a so called international science, and stresses its limits
