Flooding of Shuruppak (31 dic 2900 año aC – 1 ene 2550 año aC)

Descripción:

Localized flooding in and around the Sumerian city of Shuruppak (modern-day Tell Fara, roughly 150 miles south-east of Baghdad) leads to a great upheaval in the region and recentering of Sumerian culture/political power. This could have been, along with post-glacial flooding some 3000 years earlier, the basis for flood narratives in the Fertile Crescent.
