Encyclopedias are parts of written tradition which are related to science, knowledge and, various human specialties. In the center of their field, they organize scattered lexical entries, including a brief and an effective writing to researchers and interested audiences, in order to step on a new and an uncovered way as well as they may help to deepen the knowledge 

Therefore, the Encyclopedia of Iran’s Cultural Heritage Science with its abbreviated name “IRANAK” in various fields of cultural heritage science (e.g., Archaeological science, Conservation and Restoration, Museum Studies, and related main and minor sub-branches) attempts to write entries about specialized-technical terminologies, materials, equipment and other related items

It goes without saying that there are a multitude of encyclopedias related to the culture and art of Iran and Islam in Persian and English. With respect to all writers and specialists who are working on and writing about different aspects of Iran, Iranak group aims to investigate Iranian people’s perceptions about cultural heritage, methodology, interpretation, criticism, and today’s calligraphy. We have founded this encyclopedia in the 100th year after the formation of ANJOMAN-E ĀṮĀR-E MELLĪ (AAM), The National Monuments Council of Iran (1922) as well as have devoted our efforts to serving the national artefacts to our beloved country

With respect, the director and founder of the encyclopedia
