Ancient mesopotamIa.


Survey research work In Mesopota-
mia has revealed the fact that in for
mer times the country was covered
with q network of canals, showing that
a very celebrated system of irrigation
must then have been in vogue. Some
of these canals were 20 feet deep with
steep entertainments. This interesting
information was stated by Lieut.. Col.
G. A. Beazeley, royal engineers, in a
lecture given by him at the British
Royal Geographical society recently.
He also brought to light the fact that
the city of Samarrah. which is now n
comparatively unimportant town, at a
period before the Christian era must
have been one of the most populous
trading centers Of. the East. The an
Client city was 90 miles in length and
21s in width, and It is estimated that
1t contained about 100000 inhabit-
ants. There were miles of walls ana
warehouses, and it formed converg-
Ing point for caravans from vast
area. Another city in Mesopotamia,
the lecturer said showed traces OF
having been laid ont on the lines Of n
modern American city.
