Unbelievably, officials of the dam project have only allocated the paltry sum of 10 million rials (about $12,000) to save the artifacts and gather information at the site!

Unfortunately, if it predates Mohammad it is of no value to those ahistorical bastards.

A comparative study of the shards with examples discovered at other Bronze Age sites may lead to the identification of a new hitherto unknown culture in the region,” Qandgar said.

What, if any, relationship (geographically, not necessarily culturally) does this find have to the discovery of the graves of 'a new hitherto unknown culture' a week or two back?

IIRC, they were recently found in a village being 'salvage excavated' ahead of a new reservoir somewhere over there. They were three burials completely different than the rest of the graves that were found at the site.
