The drought reveals a palace
  • In 2010, during the Kurdistan drought, the Mosul reservoir suffered a water fall that exposed the remains of a building in Kemun.

Then there was no means of digging the fingerprints. Unfortunately, the drought has once again hit hard in the area and last autumn the slopes were once again visible in the area. On this occasion the excavation is being carried out by the Kurdistan Archaeological Institution and the University of Tubinga (Germany). It is a palace of 3,400 years old, built by the town of Mitanni.

There is little data about this town and the Palace of Kemun is going to make it possible to learn more about the mitannies. Well, it will end the drought, it will cover (and protect) the palace again, and with all that is now coming together, there will be experts who will have to analyse.
