The multidisciplinary character of this congress illustrates the present state of research in the socio-economic, historical and political developments of the Suso-Elamite region from prehistoric times until the great Persian Empire. Because of its strategically important location between the Mesopotamian alluvial plain and the Iranian highlands and its particular interest as point of contact between civilizations, Susa and Elam were of utmost importance for the history of the ancient Near East in general.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart I: Archaeological and Carchaeological-Historical Perspectives Chapter 1: New South-East Iranian Glyptic Evidence  Enrico Ascalone Chapter 2: New Evidences on Emergence of Complex Societies in the Central Iranian Plateau  M.
