Scaevola Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 Yahoo News Link Apparently, after decades of work, archaeologists have pieced together that Mari near the Euphrates was a purpose built "one phase" city for metallurgical activity. It apparently had three canals (one over 75 miles long), a flood control levy and double rampart walls. Very sophisticated design and economic purpose well in advance of the rest of the world.
