Bad-tibira (1 Jan 5000 Jahr v. Chr. – 1 Jan 2300 Jahr v. Chr.)

Beschreibung:

Bad-tibira, "Wall of the Copper Worker(s)",[1] or "Fortress of the Smiths",[2] identified as modern Tell al-Madineh, between Ash Shatrah and Tell as-Senkereh (ancient Larsa) in southern Iraq,[3] was an ancient Sumerian city, which appears among antediluvian cities in the Sumerian King List. Its Akkadian name was Dûr-gurgurri. It was also called Παντιβίβλος (Pantibiblos) by Greek authors such as Berossus, transmitted by Abydenus and Apollodorus. This may reflect another version of the city's name, Patibira, "Canal of the Smiths".
