BETWEEN TWO RIVERS (PB)

Thousands of years ago, in a part of the world we now call ancient Mesopotamia, people began writing things down for the very first time. What they left behind preserves leaps in human ingenuity. Dr Moudhy Al-Rashid reveals what these ancient people chose to record about their lives, allowing us to brush hands with them millennia later. Like a dog's paw prints as it accidentally stepped into fresh clay, or moments where history is quietly made when we meet an enslaved person negotiating their freedom. These fragments illuminate the story of how history was made.
