University of Central Florida Reveals 4,000-Year-Old Archaeological Discovery in Iraq

Significant Archaeological Discovery in Kurdistan Reveals Ancient Treasures

An important archaeological find has recently been uncovered in the Kurdistan region of northern Iraq, with the artifacts dating back to the 18th century BC.

A team of researchers led by Professor Tiffany Spadoni, a specialist in history, made the discovery. They found cuneiform tablets, a board game, and the remains of a large structure that dates to the Middle Bronze Age, specifically around 1800 BC. According to Professor Spadoni, this is the first time cuneiform tablets from this period have been found in the region.

The discovery took place in a location known as “Kurd Qabristan,” situated to the west of Erbil, the capital of the Kurdistan region.

Spadoni expressed hope that these findings would lead to the discovery of more historical records, which could provide insight into the history of the city from the perspective of its inhabitants, rather than relying solely on records from their adversaries.

She also highlighted that this discovery adds valuable knowledge to our understanding of the development of writing in ancient Mesopotamian civilizations, particularly literacy in the cities of northern Mesopotamia.

Iraq is home to six archaeological sites recognized as World Heritage sites and is widely regarded as the cradle of the Sumerian, Akkadian, Babylonian, and Assyrian civilizations, where writing and the first cities originated.

In addition to the many historical sites in Iraq, the Kurdistan region is also home to numerous important archaeological and historical locations, with the Erbil Citadel being one of the most well-known, which was added to the World Heritage list about a decade ago.
