The Ahwar Region of Southern Iraq.

Welcome to the Ahwar of Southern Iraq — a place where rivers meet and time holds its breath. This film explores the haunting beauty of the Mesopotamian Marshes, the ancient city of Ur, and the sacred echoes that still ripple through the waters today. From the bowed silhouette of Adam’s Tree to the ziggurat that once touched the heavens, this is a journey through one of the oldest cradles of civilisation. Here, Sumerian kings once ruled, Abraham is said to have walked, and the night sky was read like scripture. But it is also a place of exile, resistance, and resurrection. Drained by Saddam Hussein in a brutal act of vengeance, the marshes were nearly lost — and yet, like the people who live there, they endure. Now, they whisper again. This is more than history. This is memory—held in mud, water, and wind. This video is part of our series exploring lost civilisations, sacred ruins, and the fragile borderlands of time. — Discover more at: [echoesandedges.com] Subscribe on Substack: [https://echoesandedges2025.substack.c...] All footage captured on location in Iraq Learn more about Ur & the Ahwar (UNESCO): https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/1481/ #EchoesAndEdges #Ur #Mesopotamia #Iraq #UNESCO #TravelDocumentary #CradleOfCivilisation #AncientHistory #Sumerians #MarshArabs #Ziggurat #Ahwar #AdamTree #MiddleEast #CulturalHeritage #EnvironmentalRestoration
