Isn't ancient Persian science pretty significant?
To my knowledge, most of it from antiquity was lost. Whish is what Ibn Khaldun was speaking about, not the scholarship for the Islamic period.
To clarify, I did mean the pre-Islamic Persians, but it looks like you're right. There is evidence of engineering achievements but a lot was lost.
