EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the historical and cultural significance of the Tigris River, as it begins its journey from a serene lake in the Kurdistan region. The Tigris, known as Shatt Dijla in Arabic, is the second longest river in Iraq and is renowned for its rich history and cultural importance in the region. The river's source lies in a picturesque lake nestled in the rugged terrain of Kurdistan, a region known for its diverse ethnic and religious communities. The lake's tranquil waters reflect the surrounding landscape, providing a stunning contrast to the dynamic energy of the river as it flows downstream. The Tigris then passes through the ancient city of Mosul, one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. Mosul was once a thriving cultural and commercial center, famous for its architecture, art, and literature. The city's history is deeply intertwined with that of the Tigris, which provided a vital source of water and transportation for its inhabitants. Further downstream, the Tigris joins forces with the Euphrates River to form the Shatt al-Arab waterway, which flows into the Persian Gulf. The confluence of the two rivers marked the boundary between the ancient empires of Babylon and Assyria, and the area remains an important center of agriculture, industry, and trade to this day. This photograph, taken circa 1835, offers a glimpse into the historical and cultural significance of the Tigris River, which has played a vital role in the development of civilizations in the region for thousands of years. From its source in Kurdistan to its confluence with the Euphrates, the Tigris has been a lifeline for the people of Iraq, providing water, transportation, and inspiration for generations.
