This following paper presents the important results from a recent publication on the Egyptian style objects found in Achaemenid sites in Iran (in Persika 20, 2020). The new data provided by the recent publication has brought new insight on our knowledge of the Egyptian presence in Achaemenid Persia. The archaeological material that has been studied belongs mainly to a royal context, and demonstrates the appropriation of certain Egyptian traditions in the conception of Persian palatial culture. The documentation discussed confirms the participation of various Egyptian specialists in the court life of Persian kings, but also in the architectural development of their royal buildings. Ultimately, this research reveals the activities and long-lasting settlements of some Egyptian communities in the centre of the Persian Empire.
