Identity is the process of consciously responding to one's "what and who" and Knowing the values of the historical identity of a people or a nation is helpful in realizing their important cultural, social, political and economic goals. exactly of course Cultural iconography is a science that examines the culture of human societies and its characteristics through literary and artistic works, and its subject is mostly the reflection of the mentality or reasoning of a person or group or nation and their image in travelogues. eastern travelers have included the image of Iranian women in their travelogues, just as world travelers such as Tavernier and Sanson have described the position, role and identity of
exactly Iranian women in the Safavid era in their travelogues and sometimes judged based on mental stereotypes. This research was carried out with the aim of explaining the position, role and identity of Iranian women of the Safavid era in the travelogues of Tavernier and Sanson based on the concept of cultural iconography in a descriptive-analytical method and examined their real view and mental stereotypes of the Iranian women of the Safavid era. The results of the research indicate that Iranian women were at the center of the real and stereotyped view of Safavid period travel writers, as beauty, marriage, fertility and having sons were the highest demands of women in
exactly the patriarchal society of this period. Of course, the patriarchal society's treatment of women in addition to beauty, marriage, acceptance of polygamy, and of course having sons has been different, as court women are not passive, but always strive to acquire skills and participate in social arenas and acquire skills such as hunting, shooting, riding horses, embroidering etc, and travel writers have also attributed this lack of passivity to common women in mental stereotypes.
