Based on new findings, the report overturns current constructions of the origins of the archaeological culture in Hasanlu, which sought to link the Monochrome Burnished Ware Horizon to the migration of new peoples into western Iran in the later second millennium B.C. This work shows instead that the Monochrome Burnished Ware Horizon developed gradually from indigenous traditions.
