List of Iranian Artifacts Abroad is a List of Iranian and Persian antiquities outside Iran especially in famous museums or historical site of neighboring countries. such as Afghanistan- Pakistan- Turkey - Azerbaijan - Iraq- Armenia and the Persian gulf countries.

In famous museum

For over 1,000 years, Persia played a central role in the history of the ancient world, alongside and often competing with the Assyrian, Greek, Roman and Byzantine empires. A millennium is a long time and various Persian empires succeeded each other, the most important of which were first the Achaemenid, established 550 BCE, and the last, the Sassanian, which fell in 642 CE, with the Parthian sandwiched in between. Persian empires may have changed, but their visual and material culture persisted after the rise of Islam in the seventh century, as well as a reigning Persian royal family. Almost most museums across the globe feature ancient Iranian relics,” Among those are some 4,000 artifacts taken from Persepolis, around 80 percent of the objects in the Arab World Museum in Paris also belonged to Iran. However, over the past couple of years, Iran has managed to repatriate some of the relics. In his 2003 book “The Great American Plunder of Persia's Antiquities 1925-1941,” Majd uses recently declassified U.S. State Department records and other available sources to document this process, the report said. Last September, an exquisite Achaemenid-era relief, which is estimated to be worth $1.2-million, was handed back to Iran under a rule laid down by a U.S. court.

  • British Museum Iran was rich in valuable natural resources, especially metals, and played an important role in the development of ancient Middle Eastern civilisation and trade. Room 52 highlights these ancient interconnections and the rise of distinctive local cultures, such as in Luristan, during the age of migrations after about 1400 BC. one of the famous persian artifact in British museum Cyrus Cylinder is an ancient clay cylinder, now broken into several pieces, on which is written a declaration in Akkadian cuneiform script in the name of Persia's Achaemenid king Cyrus the Great. It dates from the 6th century BC and was discovered in the ruins of Babylon in Mesopotamia (modern Iraq) in 1879. It is currently in the possession of the British Museum, which sponsored the expedition that discovered the cylinder. It was created and used as a foundation deposit following the Persian conquest of Babylon in 539 BC, when the Neo-Babylonian Empire was invaded by Cyrus and incorporated into his Persian Empire.

• Metropolitan Museum of Art Iran displays ancient Persian artifacts returned from the US .Among the oldest items on display are dozens of clay bowls, jugs and engraved coins dating back 3,500 years and formerly housed in the University of Chicago's famed Oriental Institute.

Near Eastern antiquities, the second newest department, dates from 1881 and presents an overview of early Near Eastern civilization and "first settlements", before the arrival of Islam. The department is divided into three geographic areas: the Levant, Mesopotamia (Iraq), and Persia (Iran). The collection's development corresponds to archaeological work such as Paul-Émile Botta's 1843 expedition to Khorsabad and the discovery of Sargon II's palace. These finds formed the basis of the Assyrian museum, the precursor to today's department.

The museum contains exhibits from Sumer and the city of Akkad, with monuments such as the Prince of Lagash's Stele of the Vultures from 2450 BC and the stele erected by Naram-Sin, King of Akkad, to celebrate a victory over barbarians in the Zagros Mountains. The 2.25-metre (7.38 ft) Code of Hammurabi, discovered in 1901, displays Babylonian Laws prominently, so that no man could plead their ignorance. The 18th-century BC mural of the Investiture of Zimrilim and the 25th-century BC Statue of Ebih-Il found in the ancient city-state of Mari are also on display at the museum.

The Persian portion of Louvre contains work from the archaic period, like the Funerary Head and the Persian Archers of Darius I. This section also contains rare objects from Persepolis which were also lent to the British Museum for its Ancient Persia exhibition in 2005.
