On the ground floor of the museum, you will witness the Bronze Age and the Iron Age consisting of the beginning of writing and the beginning of the Elamite period, the Bronze Age and the Elamite period, the Iron Age, the Achaemenid, Seleucid, Parthian and Sasanian periods.

The biggest part of Iran National Museum on the ground floor belongs to the Bronze Age and the Iron Age.

From the entrance of the ground floor, you will go to the first floor through the stairs. The first floor of the Museum is divided into two main parts: the Paleolithic period including the Old Paleolithic, Middle Paleolithic, New Paleolithic, and the Ultra Paleolithic and the Neolithic and Copper and Stone periods including the beginning of the Neolithic, the early settlement period, the old settlement period (It is middle ruralization, new ruralization period and initial urbanization period). There is a showroom and two temporary exhibition halls on this floor.

The Objects

 Many special and valuable objects are kept in different parts of the Iran National Museum that we mentioned earlier. In the following, we will introduce some of them.

Paleolithic period

From the Paleolithic era, which was the era of hunting and food gathering, many tools such as different scrapers can be seen in this museum. Tools made of flint, fossil remains of animals found in caves, tools for breaking animal bones, carving wood, and everything that early humans produced for survival are kept in this section.

Bronze Age

The Bronze or Bronze Age (3000 to 1500 BC) is a period in history in which the widespread use of bronze alloy (a combination of copper and tin) was formed. Hence objects made of bronze are seen a lot in this section. Such as dishes, war weapons, horse saddles and harnesses, human and animal figures, decorative and ritual works such as brooches, armbands, necklaces and headgear.

The works that can be seen in this section are collected from different parts of Iran such as Kurdistan, Sistan and Baluchistan, Kerman, Lorestan, etc. and are kept in this museum.

Elamite period

Elam is the most well-known Iranian civilization that was founded in the southwest of Iran (Khuzestan and Fars). The history of Elam civilization is divided into four parts: the beginning period of Elam, old Elam, middle Elam and new Elam. The Middle Elam period is the peak of the glory of this civilization and many artifacts from that period are kept in the Museum.

Important works that can be visited in this museum from the Elamite period are the clay figure of a cow with an inscription on its post, glass pipes, brick inscriptions and studs with inscriptions.

Iron Age

The Iron Age is the boundary between the Bronze Age and the Achaemenid Empire. The reason for naming the Iron Age is to know how to melt iron metal and its various uses. Although the use of bronze is still very popular in this period, the familiarity with the use of iron is considered a great revolution; Especially in the field of making war tools and ornaments.

Among the important works obtained from that period are the works of Amarlo, Clovers, Marlik and Amlesh (Gilan), Silk (Kashan), Qaytarieh (Tehran), Khorvin, etc.

Achaemenid

During the Achaemenid Empire, which was formed roughly 2500 years ago Iran or the land of Pars was in its widest geographical form. Darius the Great minted coins for the first time in Iran during this period. Metalworking and stonework also reached their peak. Great Persepolis is also a proof of this.

The figure of a sitting lion and the stone statue of Darius the Great are two examples of the most important objects of the Achaemenid era that are kept in the Museum of Ancient Iran. These objects were brought to this museum from Fars and Susa.

Seleucid period

The Seleucid period is the period of popularization of art and culture. In this period, using the raw materials that were known until that day, the production of figurines, coins, and various inscriptions began. Among the works from this period, we can mention the bronze face of a Seleucid soldier and the memorial stone of Laodicea Temple in Nahavand.

Many valuable objects from the Seleucid and Parthian periods are preserved there, which were collected from different countries and showed the extent of Iran's sovereignty in these periods.
