[1/17/10. As you can see the excerpt of the Human Adventure has been removed because the Oriental Institute asserted it's copyright. You win some you lose some as the saying goes.

This is the Iran section of the Oriental Institute produced film The Human Adventure, filmed in 1933 and released in 1935. Most of the footage posted here is of the excavations at Persepolis.
