(4 – 1) TOURIST SITES

FIRST: ARCHEOLOGICAL SITES:

Thi-Qar includes a large number of archeological sites. Following an archeological survey of the governorate in 2005, 2008 and 2010, which was carried out by the inspection office of Thi-Qar governo-rate, the number of archeological sites reached about 1,200.

When Dr. Henry T. Wright, Professor of Anthropology a t the Department of Anthropology at

the American University of Chicago, in July of 2003, he said that archeology

scientists in the West call Nasiriyya the world’s archeological museum because

of the large important archeological sites it contains.

The huge number of archeological sites in Thi-Qar starts from the early agricul-tural villages and the period of the first

Sumerian city states within 3000 B.C. when Mesopotamia was divided into cities and mini-states full of buildings, temples and bulwarks. Excavations carried out in

these sites have revealed secrets and very important historic rings.

Relics were found of a high artistic, literary, cultural and religious value. These cities and their ruins remain standing till this day. Among these sites are:

1.UrCity:It is the city of the Prophet of God Abraham, peace be upon him, and it has his house and the place from which his mission started. It is regarded as the convergence of religions and the Sumerian capital which occupied an important place in the history of humanity. Resi-dence in that city goes back to the slaves period about 4000 B.C. It was one of the min-state Sumerian cities in the age of the dawn of

ancestries. Ur is regarded as a sacred religious center by the resi-dents of the Valley of the Two Rivers (Mesopotamia). Gods were worshipped in it the most famous of which were: Nanna moon-god,

INFRASTRUCTURE

Anu heaven-god, Eniki primal water-god and goddess Ninkal, wife of the moon-god.

Home of the Father of Prophets, Abraham (peace with him),

near the Ziggurat, and its relics testify to the launching of the

Hanafi message to the world

The greatest period through which Ur passed was at the hands of the founder of the important Sumerian empire, Nemo, in the third Ur em-pire which lasted from 2112 – 2006 B.C. Five kings after him ruled it successively.

2.Telal-Aweeli: It is the oldest archeological site in southern Iraq and is located in the Bathaa district, according to the excavation of a French mission. It dates to six thousand years before Christ.

3.Eridu:It is located 40 km west of Nasiriyya city and is regarded as the first civilized city in the history of humanity, going back to five thousand years B.C.

4.Bad-Tibra: It is located 15 km west of Shatra city. It is a city residence in which dates back to the slaves period 4000 B.C.

5.Al-Abeed(Slaves):It is located 6 km west of Ur and is 25 km from Nasiriyya city to the west. It is after this hill that the period known as the slave period (the history of which extended from 4500 – 3800 B.C.) is named.

6.Lagash:It is located in the Dawaya district and is one of the larg-est sites.

7.Criso:It is a city 16 km northeast of Shatra city which was fa-mous during the second Lagash ancestry which lived in the Kuti age 2200 – 2100 B.C. The most famous of its kings is Godia who revived the Sumerian arts and humanity sciences and built temples.

SECOND: MARSHES

The marshes of Thi-Qar are regarded to be among the most important natural tourist landmarks in the south and form the natural basin for the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. They were formed thousands of years ago from the feeding of both of these rivers. The most im-portant of them is the Chibayish in Thi-Qar which is regarded as the largest marshlands of southern Iraq. Its area covers 600 km2, in addition to the Hammar and Hwaiza marshes as well as another group of marshes and shallow waters con-nected to each other and distributed to the governorates of Basra, Thi-Qar and Misan on land the area of which is more than three million donums south of Iraq.

The marshes have a positive impact on the environment. They are regarded as a good source for providing many food items such as fish, fowls and agricultural resources that rely on plenty and continuous water such as rice and sugar cane.

Some people think that this area is the site which the Old Testament calls the “Gardens of Eden”. Historic and archeological studies and researches point out that this area is the place where the features and civilizations of the Sumerians became clear. This is proven by the Sumerian ruins and inscriptions which have been discovered in it. Marshes

SECTORHOUSING

Housing is regarded as one of the

basic needs for the Iraqi citizen at

the present time due to the high pop-

ulation density in this governorate.

Thi-Qar governorate suffers from an

acute shortage of the residential units

which is about 176,281 residential units

for all governorate. In order to meet

the shortage in housing and provide

suitable homes for all governorate cit-

izens, the Investment Commission has

provided a group of investment op-

portunities to build the residential units

in both their vertical and horizontal

types distributed on all administrative

units in the governorate.

God granted Thi-Qar governorate a natural distinction: the

presence of open shallow waters (marshes), and these ar-

eas are regarded among the most beautiful of the world’s areas.

They can be a great center for attracting tourists due to the en-

chanting nature and other distinctions. This place has now become

the focus of most international companies that hopes to invest the

nature of these shallow waters to set up large tourist resorts.

Also, the governorate is full of a large number of archeologi-

cal sites the most important of which is the ancient Ur city south-

west of Nasiriyya city which includes the Sumerian Ziggurat, one

of the oldest relics in the world. The date of its building goes back

to the dawn of the Sumerian ancestry 6000 years ago. This city

also includes the house of Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him)

which is located near the Ziggurat. This place in particular is re-

garded as a tourism magnet due to being regarded as holy by

most Unitarian religions.

SECTORHEALTHThe health sector suffered during the past decades of neglect and dereliction which led to weakening this sector which is regarded as one of the basic service sectors especially in the shade of the current circumstances which the country is witnessing. Ultimately, it needs rehabilitation and the building of health projects in all specializations. There are many investment opportunities available in this field.
