Abstract
It is known that among the important nodes in the history of world urban development is the formation of the settlements of ancient Iran and Armenia. The study of their heritage is of high importance and interest. Apart from studying them separately, their comparative study is very remarkable. In fact, their comparative study is of great importance for the identification of the stages of urban development and architecture in the given countries, which have a special interest. Our study is based on the study of the formation and building of historical old cities in Iran and Armenia, including the parallels between them, in the context of the architecture of the historical period under investigation.In other words, our aim is the presentation of a comparative and analytical study of the respective settlements of Armenia and Iran by introducing their data within the ruling principles of the discussed historical period, that is, in the context of architectural developments
