History
The Chalcolithic settlement site of Chogha Mish, also known as Tappeh-ye Choghā Mīsh, dates originally to the early seventh millennium BCE and is located on the Susiana Plain of western Iran. The site was occupied continuously from the Neolithic period to the Proto-Literate period. It was eventually eclipsed by nearby Susa.
