If the word is true, it opens the way/ Archaeologists are the link between history and human values/ Some people have become religious, but what they introduce is not religion at all.
According to Aria Heritage, the Minister of Cultural Heritage, Tourism and Handicrafts stated in the 20th annual archeology conference that was held on the 7th Sunday of March with the presence of a group of archeologists of the country at the National Museum: Archeology is science, knowledge, culture and art. It is a combination of the most important topics and human capabilities. 10 years ago, in a meeting held in Mashhad under the title of commemorating Sheikh Baha’i, I explained the most important characteristic of Sheikh Baha’i in material sciences and as an interdisciplinary personality, and later it became clear how neglected his character was in this field. Archeology is a multidisciplinary science.
He said to the archaeologists: You are the link between history and human values.
Zarghami went on to say: When I spoke about the neglect of architecture after the revolution, I was attacked a lot because I said that architecture was neglected after the revolution. We need to talk about it frankly and without stuttering. Ownership, money and making and selling made them use a lot of space to earn a little more money.
The Minister of Cultural Heritage, Tourism and Handicrafts further mentioned his one-day trip to Baghdad to attend the Summit of Civilized Countries. He announced the holding of this meeting next year in Iran and said about the use of foreign knowledge in archeology: Of course, the West applies it in its interactions and ignores some things due to its superiority-seeking view.
He then mentioned Newryuk and Bazid’s trip to the Metropolitan Museum and added: A large part of this museum is about Iran, it also had a literate narrator that I was there for two hours. In one section of the museum, large maps of Iran showed the nature and geography of Iran. In these maps, he wrote the Persian Gulf in big letters. It was the peak of the discussion of the Persian Gulf countries. The person who was narrating stood in front of the word “Persian” and blocked the filming. They present history, but do not retell it. In some Hollywood movies, they have calculated to declare our civilization and history to be decadent.
Referring to the limited and rare resources of intangible cultural heritage, Zarghami said: I am very sorry about this. I am working on some. More than three thousand works have been registered, but some of them do not even have a single page of content. For some time now, I have appointed a team to inform me about some important issues. A few days ago, the sports minister, who unfortunately is now in the ICU, gave a quarter about the characteristics of “polo”, lifestyle and behavior, detailed and excellent information that I did not know at all.
The Minister of Cultural Heritage, Tourism and Handicrafts said: We tried to eliminate conflicts from the first day. Some people said that if you went there, you wouldn’t have Cyrus and Darius on your tongue two days later! Now they see how many virtues there were in this country and relying on them, Iranians accepted Islam. Martyr Motahari says that if it was not because of the Iranians, not in terms of numbers, people and equipment, even the power of faith, that small number of the Islamic Corps that attacked Iran seven times, the path of religion would not have been opened. Because the society had become multi-class. They heard that a religion has come with these characteristics. These virtues are in our intangible heritage. Archaeologists are the first group to crack this key. Some people have become addicted to this religion that what they are introducing is not a religion at all.
