Seh Gubba

settlement · 30 BC – 1999 AD

Ball (1987) describes his excavations at Seh Gubba that were carried out as part of the Saddam Dam Salvage Project. These excavations took place in early 1986 and revealed a fortified town. Ramparts dating to either the Sasanian or Byzantine phases surround the tell but Ball speculates the settlement was likely of Roman origin.
