Haradum (modern Khirbit ed-Diniye, Iraq) was an ancient Near East city on the middle Euphrates about 90 kilometers southeast of Mari. ==History== While the site of Haradum was occupied earlier, being mentioned in texts from Mari, 〔Wolfgang Heimpel, Letters to the King of Mari, EISENBRAUNS, 2003,ISBN 1-57506-080-9〕 it did not grow into a proper town until the 18th century BC under the control of the First Dynasty of Babylon. The earliest dated record is from the 26th year of King Samsu-iluna of Babylon. Tablets from the reign of Abi-eshuh, Ammi-ditana, Ammi-saduqa, and Samsu-Ditana have also been found at Haradum. The town of Haradum was destroyed during the reign of Samsu-Ditana. Haradum is noted for being one of the earliest examples of a planned city, with a square layout and straight streets.〔C.Kepinski-Lecomte, Spatial occupation of a new town Haradum, in Houses and Households in ancient Mesopotamia.
