In the meantime, in pre-modern societies, the share of political and cultural elites has been greater than the masses. The assessment of the practice of the two families, Barmak and Juvayni, in two different periods of Iranian history; the dominance of the Abbasid caliphate and the Mongols will be a facilitator in identifying the course of the cultural and social developments of Iran. This paper seeks to address the following question:How did the Barmaky and Juvayni families contribute to the reconstruction of Iranian culture? The researcher tries by enjoying the historical texts related to the courses mentioned above and employing a documentary and library research method with a comparative approach to explain the role of two families in the reconstruction of the Iranian culture. The findings of this study show that the two families, like the other bureaucrats of Iranian history, had been a carrier of Iranian culture and identity. The scientific and cultural situation of these two families, the ability to carry out divine affairs, and the political and economic need of rulers, had linked them to the power apparatus. These families take advantage of the opportunity and supported science and culture, as these supporting of physicians, poetries, and other men of pen helped to survive Persian Language and Culture.
