Traditional knowledge is knowledge that is obtained due to the experience and traditions of the local people of a region and using the method of trial and error in a laboratory called nature. The identification of traditional forest-related knowledge has become very important in recent decades, especially in the field of achieving sustainable forest management and with the ultimate goal of achieving sustainable local, regional, national and global development. The purpose of this study is to identify the traditional knowledge related to harvest of acorns of Quercus brantii Lindl.

This research was carried out in two local regions of Chigo and Bidleh located in Monj section of Lordegan city in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province. The required information was obtained from the local community by reputation approach and using 56 interviews. The role of acorns in formal studies was also examined separately using library studies to evaluate the traditional knowledge of acorn harvesting of these trees. Finally, using qualitative evaluation and analysis of effects and consequences, ten criteria for measuring traditional and formal knowledge and the difference between the two knowledge were explained.

Among other uses of acorns which is almost common in most rural households in the study area the use of oak seeds (acorns) to prepare various muskets is common. The various uses of oak that are commonly used by local people living in the Zagros, such as: oak sap, oak kebab and boiled oak. Also, a brown colored juice called Qazūlah honey is formed on the fruit cup in late summer and early autumn, which is called "Man Shocked".

The results showed that since a formal knowledge can be based on scientific needs, the speed of information production, the rule of scientific regulation, scientific accuracy and media communication in line with research related to the seeds of Quercus brantii trees can be the benefits of formal knowledge. In this process (similar to other formal knowledge), but on the other hand, traditional knowledge due to adaptation to local conditions and social acceptance can provide the basis for participatory management in the Zagros forests.

Traditional forest-related knowledge is one of the main branches of traditional knowledge, which deals with the relationship between human life and forest. It is derived from human historical experiences and is rooted in people´s believes. The local communities in the Zagros Mountains are a valuable treasure of this knowledge because of their ancient civilization. On the other hand, they have differently utilized the forests. In this study, we identified and recorded the traditional knowledge of local communities in the common-law forest areas of Harabalout and Pireshkaft in Nourabad Mamasani of Fars province. The data was gathered by snowball sampling, the use of key informants and in a deliberately selective approach. Based on the results, forests are differently used according to the needs of the local communities. Harvesting of wild pistachio (Pistacia atlantica Desf.) gum, acorns of Brant`s oak (Quercus brantii Lindl.) for baking local bread (Kalg) and animal nutrition, as well as collecting forest fruits for human nutrition, using of Jaft, using of wood of different forest trees for different purposes such as firewood for fuel, traditional tools such as axe handle by almond wood, making chicken and cock basket with almond twigs and making waterskin holder using poplar were among the most important traditional usages in the study area. In spite of confirming the richness of traditional knowledge in the area, the results of this study emphasize the destructive aspect of some traditional utilizations.
