Kamyar Abdi (Persian: کامیار عبدی; born 1969 in Tabriz) is an Iranian anthropologist and assistant professor of archaeology at Shahid Beheshti University.
He initiated his undergraduate studies in archaeology at the University of Tehran, leading to a master's degree. Subsequently, he joined the Oriental Institute based in the University of Chicago (currently renamed as the Institute for the Study of Ancient Cultures, West Asia & North Africa) to study the near east civilizations and languages. Abdi holds his PhD in Anthropology from the University of Michigan, under supervision of Henry T. Wright.
Prior to joining the Shahid Beheshti University in Tehran, he taught and researched in many institutions, namely Dartmouth College, Harvard University, University of California, Irvine and British Museum.
He used to be a research associate at the Iranian Center for Research on Humanities and Cultural Studies, in addition to many editorial memberships in reputable journals, affiliation with councils and associations, and executive experiences such as leading the American Institute of Iranian Studies.
He has carried out numerous extensive archaeological excavations in Iran, financially supported by domestic and international organizations. The outcomes of his research have played a major role in assisting the scientific community with resolving many questions pertinent to Iranian protohistory, calcolithic, Elamites and Achaemenids. Not only has he written several original publications, but also has translated many English books and articles into Persian, and keeps supervising graduate students.
