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. In Between Two Rivers, historian Dr Moudhy Al-Rashid reveals the breathtakingly intimate, raw and relatable moments they left behind, like a dog's paw prints as it accidentally stepped into fresh clay, or the adorable, messy writing of preschoolers. We brush hands with an enslaved person negotiating their freedom, an astronomer tracing the movement of the planets, and a working mother struggling with 'the juggle' in 1900 BCE. Together, these fragments illuminate not just the history of Mesopotamia, but the story of how history was made.
