Listen "Ancient Mesopotamia"
Episode Synopsis
This week's episode takes us all the way back to Ancient Mesopotamia! I’ve invited Ingolf Thuesen to tell us more - as (now retired) lecturer at the University of Copenhagen, Ingolf has been talking about ziggurats, Gilgamesh and the Sumerians for years! He’s also the head of the Danish Institute of Damascus.Note: there’s a minor mistake on my part in this episode, where I accidentally refer to the city of Ur as the oldest city, instead of the rightfully older city, Uruk - apologies!I hope you’re enjoying Let’s Dig Deeper so far - and as always, if you have any questions or suggestions, send them to [email protected] the podcast: https://www.instagram.com/letsdigdeeperpodcast/ Follow the host: https://www.instagram.com/zee_archaeology/
