The Tigris rising in the Taurus Mountains of
eastern Turkey and flowing in a generally
southeasterly direction until it joins the
Euphrates near Al Qurna in southern Iraq. The two
rivers together form the Shatt al-Arab waterway,
which empties into the Persian Gulf. The Tigris
is joined by many tributaries, including the
Diyala and both the Upper and Lower Zab rivers.
19
The port city of Basra straddles the Shatt
al-Arab. In ancient times, many of the great
cities of Mesopotamia stood on or near the
Tigris, drawing water from it to irrigate the
civilization of the Sumerians. Notable
Tigris-side cities included Nineveh, Ctesiphon,
and Seleucia, while the city of Lagash was
irrigated by Tigris water delivered to it via a
canal dug around 2400 BC.
