Arjan bowl (Persian: Jaam-e Arjan) is a bronze bowl dated between 800 B.C and 500 B.C. It was discovered in 1982 after a bulldozer working on the Marun Dam project cut into a rock tomb near Behbahan, Iran.[1]
Arjan is the ancient name of Behbahan. Originated from the Elamite period, it measures 43.5 cm by 8.5 cm. The bowl is engraved with five concentric registers around a central rosette, and contains an inscription in the Elamite language which translates to "Kidin-Hutran son of Kurlush."
