MUSICAL HISTORY OF THE TIGRIS-EUPHRATES BASIN
Music of Ancient Mesopotamia; Sumerian music; Music in ancient Assyria; Music of Ancient Iraq; Music of ancient Mesopotamia; Mesopotamian music
Music was ubiquitous throughout Mesopotamian history, playing important roles in both religious and secular contexts. Mesopotamia is of particular interest to scholars because evidence from the region—which includes artifacts, artistic depictions and written records—places it among the earliest well-documented cultures in the history of music.
