Flooding of Shuruppak (31 déc. 2900 av. J.-C. – 1 janv. 2550 av. J.-C.)
Description:
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.Ajouté au bande de temps:
