Abstract:
Eridu is one of the oldest cities in the ancient world. The city is located on a site called (Tel Abu Shaheen), which is a huge mound of rubble that was accumulated thousands of years ago. Eridu or (Tell Abu Shahrin) is a parallelogram city with a diameter of 1900 by 1,700 feet (580 by 540 meters). It is 23 feet (7 meters) high. Most of its height consists of the ruins of the Ubaid and Uruk period (6500-3800 BC) including houses, temples, and tombs built on top of each other nearly 3,000 years ago. At the top of Eridu, it has been found the ruins of the Sumerian sacred city, which includes ziggurat tower and temples of Uruk period in addition to other structures on a 1,000 ft. (300 m) square area. The place is surrounded by a stone wall. The construction of the city continued from Ubaid period (Eridu) to the last periods of civilization. The building of the buildings complex that included the ziggurat tower and temple were during the Third Dynasty of Ur (~2112–2004 BCE).
