Eridu.
The most ancient city on Earth. According to the official scientific version, this city was founded at 6500 BC, around 8,500 years ago. It was part of the Ancient Mesapotamian civilization and currently it was located within the borders of Iraq. It was bordered by Saudi Arabia in its south, Turkey in its north, Iran in its east and Israel as well as Egypt in its west.
In the Sumerian's king list, Eridu was named as the city of the first kings. The grandeur and magnificence of the city spreaded wide and far in its time, until many of its legacies were gone, swept away by the great flood. Right now, of the once glorious city only a ruin in the middle of the yellow desert was left, abandoned in the river of time.
