High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Upper Paleolithic cave site of Yafteh located at the foot of Yafteh Mountain at NW of Khoramabad at Western Zagros. The site was located and later excavated by two American archaeologists, Frank Hole and Kent Flannery in 1960's. The site contained a thick Upper Paleolithic sequence which yielded Early Upper Paleolithic industry rich in bladelets and tools made of them. A number of C14 dates indicate that the site was occupied mainly between 30 to 35 thousands years ago. Hole and Flannery published some results of their excavation at Yafteh in a general paper about their excavations in prehistoric sites in Luristan and Dehluran. The lithic assemblages from 1967 excavations was re-analyzed in 2005 by Bordes & Shidrang and later these assemblages were the main subject of a MA thesis in 2007. The site was re-excavated in 2005 by a joint Belgian-Iranian team directed by Marcel Otte and Fereidoun Biglari and recently excavated again by Otte and Sonia Shidrang in 2008. Yafteh has yielded the largest number of C14 dates from a single Paleolithic site in Iran that are clustered around 28-35 thousands years ago.
