Cuneiform, Gilgamesh, Uruk, the rise and fall of Mesopotamian dynasties...I found this podcast with Dr. Moudhy Al-Rashid to be a) fascinating b) an absolute model of communicating complex historical-linguistic ideas, data & stories. It's brilliant. Lend it your ears.

“To me, cylinder seals from ancient Mesopotamia are so ‘gorgeous to gaze on’ that they look like they could have been plucked from the trees in the divine garden at the edge of the world.” Reading Dr. Moudhy Al-Rashid’s new book, Between Two Rivers, & oh how she loves ancient Mesopotamia!
