| Abstract | ||
| The research problem can be identified in the limitedness of the studies that allocate the comprehensive historic continuity of the Mesopotamian architecture during the Hera and sasanyain eras and at the architectural space level on the consideration that it is the heart of architecture in all its compositional and detailed items. Thus, the research aims at clarifying if there were any continuity in the Mesopotamian architecture during the Hera and sasanyain eras, and consequently, clarifying the levels of this continuity if it were on the whole or part level in architecture, then, identifying the changes that it has been through in order to know how to achieve continuity of contemporary architecture along its historical course. In order to verify this hypothesis, the architectural space has been studied. This study has managed to specify the items of the spatial continuity in the Mesopotamian architecture at the level: 1- The spatial formation 2- the spatial relations 3- the architectural elements 4- the detailed treatments Moreover, the research has reached the general conclusions and it recommends a number of recommendations at the applicable, academic and epistemological level | ||
