The region is home to ancient settlements and early human endeavors to form cities, and across the region historic urban historic features, such as ancient city centers, still exist alongside contemporary ones. Many of those historic regions are along the Silk Roads. However, the urban continuity that once existed over generations in the physical and social paradigm have been interrupted by rapid urbanization, globalization and urban economic pressures, in addition to conflicts and frequent destructive natural hazards. It is often the case that dealing with such pressing issues in a historic city is more complex than dealing with those in newly built cities and urban areas. Based on carefully selected and updated papers from the Silk Cities 2017 International Conference, this book appeals to researches, practitioners and policy makers.

In light of all this information, we can say that anthropology is a scientific discipline that introduces man, man to every direction. Anthropology is the most basic science that widened the point of view of human beings through the interdisciplinary field of study, gives the ability to evaluate natural events from prejudices, and answers the questions of why, why, when, how, and where. Archeology means “Ancient science” with the word meaning. The archaeological study of all kinds of artifacts that have remained everyday from ancient times is in the study area. Pottery includes minerals and terracotta figurines, weapons, tools, coins, cut stones, all kinds of things that people use daily, ornamental items, jewelry seals, and bulls archeology’s small works of art. This book is an entryway to start looking at the old practices and rethink of them for the fast approaching future.
