CHAPTER VI
FROM KERMAN TO BANDAR ABBAS

Section 1—FROM KERMAN TO TAL-I-IBLIS

MY stay in England, extending over four months of the summer of 1932,
enabled me to make arrangements at the British Museum for the accom-
modation and preliminary examination of the collection of antiquities brought
back from the preceding season's work on Persian ground. Incidentally it also
allowed me to pass through the press a comprehensive account of my three
Central-Asian expeditions.¹ Dr. Fábri, after bearing the main share in the
practical tasks connected with the first arrangement of our archaeological finds,
rejoined in the autumn his post at the Leiden University.

tour, including the topographical work carried on in connexion with it, to the
Ministers of Foreign Affairs, Public Instruction (including Antiquities) and
War, as well as to the Chief of the General Staff. On my subsequent passage

of Public Instruction to accompany me.

By the close of October I rejoined my camp at Kermān. There I found Sur-
veyor Muhammad Ayūb safely arrived from the extensive tours of topographical
survey he had carried out during the summer and early autumn, often under
conditions involving considerable physical hardships, in the hills to the north-
west of Kermān as well as in the high valleys to the south and south-east. In
accordance with my instructions my indefatigable Pathān assistant had in the
course of these tours kept a careful look-out for any old sites and had, wherever
such could be recognized, collected such specimens of pottery and similar relics
as could be picked up on the surface. At almost all of the numerous old localities
thus noted by him the specimens brought back for my inspection indicated
occupation down to medieval Muhammadan times. Hence there was no induce-
