As a key archaeological site, Kaldar Cave provides evidence of the Middle to Upper Palaeolithic transition in Iran. It is also one of the earliest sites with cultural materials attributed to early AMHs in western Asia. Apart from the earlier obtained dates from its Upper Paleolithic sequence, we provide here the recent obtained Thermoluminescence date from the layer 5. In this paper, we elaborate and corelate this dating to a broader discussion within the Zagros Middle and Upper Paleolithic sites. In this study, we also present a brief information on the freshly recovered lithic industries, Paleontological data, the obtained T.L dating and its position in the stratigraphic sequence

Verse 106 of Surah al-Baqarah , known as the "Verse of Abrogation ( Naskh ),"  is one of the most important pieces of evidence cited by those who believe in abrogation ( Naskh ) within the Quran. They argue that this verse explicitly refers to the abrogation of Quranic verses. Aside from the internal textual analysis of the verse, dating this verse and the abrogating verses can aid in a correct understanding of it. The present study, using a descriptive-analytical method, aims to examine the date of revelation of Verse 106 of al-Baqarah and the abrogating verses, and in doing so, analyzes the historical relationship between this verse and the abrogating verses in terms of dating. The research findings indicate that the abrogating verses were revealed after Verse 106 of Surah al-Baqarah . Therefore, the meaning of abrogating Quranic verses based on this verse is rendered meaningless, as no abrogation had occurred before this verse for God to then refer to the philosophy of abrogating Quranic verses. The correct meaning of this verse, considering its dating and the context of its revelation is the abrogation of previous divine laws by the Holy Quran.
