The site of Tol-e Nurabad is the largest mound site in Mamasani, being preserved to a height of c.23 m and an area of 9 hectares. It lies on the outskirts of the modern town of Nurabad, and recent soundings at the site by a collaborative ICAR/ICHTO and University of Sydney team have shown that the site was occupied from as early as the late 7th millennium BC up to the Sasanian period. www.archatlas.org/Petrie/Mamasani.php
