He is a favorite of pan-Turks (and their supporters in the west) and his new website has been introduced by Ali-Reza Farshi, a pan-Turk fanatic who resides in Iran.

The term "Naria" refers to Pourpirar's pen-name.
Recall that Pourpirar believes that the entire history of Iran (esp. ancient Iran) is a fabrication by Jews and Americans. he is also an extreme anti-Semite and a fervent supporter of pan-Arabism, including the late Saddam Hussein. See his views in this link:

Note Farshi's message (in Persian) below:
===============================================================================
با سلام و عرض ادب وب سایت http://www.naria. info برای حمایت از وبلاگ ف.ی.ل.ت.ر شده ی آقای پورپیرار با آدرس Naria.Blogfa. Com طراحی و راه اندازی شده است. همچنین از این آدرس می توانید مستند «تخت گاه هیچ کس» را مشاهده کنید. با تشکر و سپاس مدیر سایت turanians@gmail. com http://www.naria. info

===============================================================================.
The message indicates that this website (like close to a hundred others) has been designed and hosted in Iran. Note that the chairman of the site is a certain turanians@gmail.com - I suspect that the "chairman" is none other than Mr. Farshi himself.
It is shocking to see the views of a fanatic ideologue being so actively promoted both in the west and in Iran. Pourpirar does not understand the academic disciplines of archaeology, anthropology, historiography, or linguistics. His level of technical knowledge of those disciplines is not even at the first-year college level.
This explains his ignorance as to the existence of references and sources to pre-Islamic Iran as far away as Vietnam, Polynesia, Thailand, China, India and Japan. The same is true in Islamic references (e.g,. Tabari) as well as Greco-Roman references. Pourpirar claims that the latter (Greco-Roman) are ALL Zionist-US fabrications) - yet he fails to explain the existence of a plethora of other sources, again because he does not know them and he is not a trained academic. Also Pourpirar DOES NOT read Latin or Greek - he also has no clue regarding Byzantine, Armenian or Albanian references . This anti-Semite pan-Arabist is now the darling of pan-Turan fanatics and esp. their supporters in the west.
Brenda Shaffer (herself of Israeli descent) cites Pourpirar, but as she does not read Persian, she is unaware of how anti-Jewish Pourpirar is. Shaffer has proven again that she is an ideologue - she cites primary sources without consulting them first. This raises serious questions about her academic credibility.
However, one observation must be repeated. Many Iranians fail to distinguish between personal opinions/political views/ideology versus the disciplines of archaeology, anthropology, historiography, and linguistics. These are centuries-long academic disciplines (like physics, chemistry and mathematics) that require years of training and research. This would be similar to a psychologist expressing views about engineering techniques.
