Sumer, Babylon, the epic of Gilgamesh, the legendary Tower of Babel: all these names embody Mesopotamia. It is in this plain, also known as the "fertile crescent", where Iraq is today, that our civilization was born. There, humanity organized itself into a society of several tens of thousands of people, invented writing and gave agriculture and architecture an unprecedented development. What does this story tell, that a terrorist group decided to want to erase its trace for good? In 2014, Daech wiped the main archaeological sites of the North off the map.
