Description/Notes
Archaeology gives us a window into the wondrous world of ancient Iraq, in the region once known as Mesopotamia, the cradle of civilization. Join scientists as they study the Citadel in northern Iraq; explore the ancient city of Nineveh; and see how ancient treasures help scientists reassemble the mosaic-like puzzle of Iraq's past. The war in Iraq is threatening to destroy vast quantities of information about this extremely important society. This book gives children access to the latest information on a civilization of extreme importance to world heritage.
