The archaeological site has been named Kemune.
to give archaeologists a brief window in which to discover and document the ruins, before the water level rose and covered them again. In January and February of this year, archaeologist Hasan Ahmed Qasim from the Kurdistan Archaeology Organization in Iraq, along with fellow researchers Ivana Puljiz of the University of Freiburg and Peter Pfälzner from the University of Tübingen in Germany, set about mapping the mysterious city.In addition to the palace that was uncovered in 2018, the researchers found some other interesting structures.
During this, an earthquake devastated the region, toppling buildings, which resulted in a protective coating of rubble falling over the remaining intact walls, covering their painted murals and the buildings' contents.Fascinatingly, the city also yielded some ceramic jars containing over 100 unfired clay tablets inscribed in cuneiform, dating to the Middle Assyrian, shortly after the earthquake.
You people just blindly jump on board anything government says. Have you personally done research on global warming history like a real journalist does? or just thought ok this is what their saying I'm all in? If you did you'd know many times the earth has been warmer & cooler.
