Top Comments of this video!! :3
I’ve seen numerous presentations on Ur and I have to say, this is one of the best. It was refreshing to see artifacts hitherto unseen and learn some new information. I am a fan HWP & I look forward to and am really enjoying the visual presentations! Keep ‘em coming pa-lease!! Thanks for posting!

Ur is at a location which very well may have been once settled, then flooded, then settled again when the floods subsided. During the Ice Age the entire "gulf" was exposed dry land with the single combined river running through it. When the ice melted the "gulf waters" rose and flooded inland to well above Ur. Subsequent silting from the combined river would have then put Ur back as dry land with a flood level under it.

I find it amazing that for thousands of years this great city was entirely lost to history, yet people would mention its name all the time when they read the bible as the city in which Abraham was born in. I am not a religious person, but the Bible has preserved a great wealth of knowledge and clues about the ancient world.
