Also, its text is a valuable relic of Hakim Nizami, which is one of the most cited research works in the field of Persian literature. Nizami is one of the talented Persian poets, who not only has a separate method and style, but the influence of his style on Persian poetry is also quite evident in the poets after him. He had a great awareness of the common knowledge of his time, including literary sciences, astronomy, philosophy, Islamic sciences, jurisprudence, theology, and Arabic literature, and this characteristic is reflected in his poems. Khamsa of Nizami has been very popular with Persian painters and calligraphers and many copies of it have been reproduced in various periods from the Timurid era to the Qajar era, which are scattered in museums all over the world, and this is due to the special charm of Khamsa of Nizami's romantic-mystical and sagacious stories. It is popular with audiences all over the world today and shows Nizami's ability to attract the collective unconscious of humanity. This magnificent collection includes 22 paintings, which are important in terms of showing the way people lived in the Timurid period and reflecting it in Persian paintings. On the other hand, Behzad is an outstanding artist who, in addition to accurately recording the daily life of the people, deeply adhered to the social concerns of his time and benefited from mystical references in his works, which is his close and deep connection with prominent mystics and poets (Jāmī and Nava'i) and mystical circles that are proof of this claim. In this regard, the painting of "building Khovarnagh Palace" by Kamaleddin Behzad,

necessary. Many plants are known around the world to have antibacterial, antimicrobial, and antifungal
properties. By using those plant compounds, antibacterial, antimicrobial, and fungal properties can be created in
textiles. Textiles are one of the unavoidable requirements that all human beings use abundantly in their lives. In
the natural dyeing process, the use of some medicinal plant compounds resulted in antibacterial, antimicrobial,
and antifungal properties. In this study, medicinal plants such as thyme, clove, marjoram, lavender, wormwood,
and espand were studied for antibacterial and antimicrobial properties on textiles. The antibacterial property of
mordanted and dyed wool & cotton yarns were tested against Escherichia coli (Gram-negative), Staphylococcus
aureus (Gram-positive), and Candida albicans microbe for cotton. The range of colour developed on dyed
materials was evaluated in terms of (L*, a*, b*) CIE LAB coordinates and the dye absorption concentration on the
yarns was studied by using K/S values. Also, fastness tests on dyed samples for light and washing fastness were
carried out. The experimental results showed that the examined plants, in addition to creating antimicrobial and
antibacterial properties on wool and cotton yarns, can be used as a dye to produce a durable yellow shade. The
dyeing fastness of applied dyes was acceptable. Aloe vera, which has a polyphenolic structure, was used to
increase dyeing fastness and durability of antibacterial activity against gram-negative and gram-positive
bacteria. The property was created to maintain its durability for several washed cycles.

Although plants exhibit a wide range of colors, not all of these pigments can be used as dyes directly. Sunflower seed is one of the popular vegetal cooking oil source used in Iran, as well as in the world. The main colorants in the sunflower seed hulls (SFSH) are anthocyanin. Anthocyanin dyestuffs are mainly used in food industry. Most of the purple, blue and black fruits are sources of anthocyanin. Anthocyanins can be used as pH indicators because their color changes with pH. The aim of this study is to understand firstly the SFSH useable source for textile dyeing and secondly the effect of dyeing bath pH, temperature and dye concentration on the woolen yarn properties. The range of color developed on dyed materials are evaluated in terms of (L*, a*, b*) CIE LAB coordinates and the dye absorption concentration on the woolen yarn dyed by SFSH is studied by using K/S values. Also fastness tests on dyed samples for light and washing fastness were carried out. CIELab coordinates of the samples change in different dyeing processes. This could be explained with presence of anthocyanin components that are sensitive to pH and temperature. The study of the effects of different factors on dye ability of wool by SFSH extract showed that the pH and the temperature of dye bath considerably affected the color yield. The best results were obtained at pH 3.5 and boiling temperature.

Polo is an Iranian tradition that dates back to over 2500 up to 3000 years and it is the first known team sport in the world that has goal and ball (guy).Polo is not just a game , and polo needs various aspects of planning and ideas alongside the horse s preparation . In fact, when the polo player and horse playing polo, they have been practicing martial. Based on the evidence , polo is an oldest sport in the world . This vibrant game that polo player and horse have an equal role , from oldest written documents up to popular songs and poems of the great orators of Iran , has been frequently pointed out . Polo has a special position in persian artists and poets and they pointed to the polo stick , ball and polo's terminology in their poetry . But despite iranian polo has old previous ,its written and recorded are slight and we have not enough information about the rules, tools and equipments and clothing there . Based on this question that how to be changed the polo stick , clothing , ball and goal in the Sassanid arts up to contemporary arts, and what is the basis of these evolutions, this research has gathered the previous related research works using the library, documental and internet resources and in the next stage, it has examined the case studies gathering the old texts and illustrated pages and arts related to the polo game and refining them in terms of the validity of documents and containing the date.Finally, after collecting data, the differences and similarities between them have been analyzed and at the end pictorial findings and written findings are matched together. According to the results of this research, in total we found seven forms and three materials of polo stick and two forms and six materials of polo ball and Iranian poets and their poem from the Sassanid era up to contemporary era have used a total of 1502 cases of "polo stick". This research is descriptive - analytical using the techniques of library,observation and interview have been carried out .
