Founder & Lead Curator
Zulquarnain Akhtar
Welcome to Tehran Notes. I am a passionate researcher and historian dedicated to uncovering the multi-layered history of the Iranian plateau.
My journey with Iran began with a fascination for its ancient ruins and evolved into a mission: to document 7,000 years of civilization - from the dawn of Susa to the vibrant energy of modern-day Tehran - in an accessible, digital format.
Our Vision
To bridge the gap between academic history and digital storytelling. We believe that understanding the past is the only way to navigate our global future.
The Methodology
Every note and timeline entry on this platform is meticulously researched, cross-referencing classical texts with modern archaeological findings for maximum accuracy.
