YES!!!
I still remember your old coverage of Mari, and I must say that the architecture and water-infrastructure of the city is really a wonder to behold. It had a beautiful garden as well. Ironically a lot of our image of Babylon is that of Nebuchadnezzar's Neo-Babylon and Ishtar Gates. But even as far as the ancient time of Hammarabi, Mari in a way was already a gorgeous gardened city.

Thank you for focusing the light on one of the most lovely city in ancient mesopotamia.. I invite you to visit the museum of Allepo and Damascus to see the magnificent tools and seals they used in Mary that ancient days and to observe how accurate and skilled the people who lived in that city. I wish within few years the situation will be more peaceful to visit those both location. Thanks again.

@9:20 Ooof, the sting of that rebuke echoes through space and time.

I've been rather partial to Mari since I was a teenager (admittedly, that was in the early Bronze Age). Something attracted me to the civilizations that always seemed to get second-banana status in the popular books: Elam, Mitanni, Urartu, the Luwians, and others. Perhaps it's because I'm Canadian --- we know what it's like to have people forget you exist because the Big Shots are grabbing all the attention. I'm pleased to see from the comments that there other Mari fans.
