SUMMARY:Eastern Iran and Western Central Asia during Late Antiquity (3rd-5th cent. CE): Numismatics\, Archaeology\, and Art History in Dialogue
DESCRIPTION:Late Antiquity in Western Central Asia and Eastern Iran—
 that is the centuries between the downfall of the Great Kushan dynasty
  and the beginning of Türk suzerainty—remains a particularly obscur
 e period. Major questions concerning even basic political and cultural
  developments are still poorly understood. Yet\, it is clear that this
  period was one of important and momentous political\, social\, demogr
 aphic\, and cultural change—such as the rise of Iran as a new hegemo
 nic power in the wider region\, the ascent of Sogdiana as one of the m
 ain cultural and economic power-houses of Eurasia\, and the influx of 
 new populations and elites\, labeling themselves and/or labeled by oth
 ers as “Huns.”
