The Khazir River is a river of northern Iraq, a tributary of the Great Zab River. ==History== At a site called M'lefaat evidence has been found of a small village of hunter-gatherers dating to the 10th millennium BC that was contemporary with the Pre-Pottery Neolithic A in the Levant.〔Kozłowski, Stefan Karol (1998), "M'lefaat. Early Neolithic site in northern Iraq", Cahiers de l'Euphrate 8: 234,〕〔Solecki, Ralph S. (1997). "Shanidar Cave". In Meyers, Eric M. The Oxford Encyclopedia of Archaeology in the Ancient Near East 5. New York: Oxford University Press. pp. 15–16.〕 Latter the river was part of an irrigation area that supported the Assyrian city of Nimrud.〔Christopher Davey, (The negub Tunnel ), Iraq Vol. 47 (1985), pp. 49-55 .〕 Known to the Hellenistic Greeks as the Boumelus River〔Curtis book 9.〕 the river was site of a battle between Alexander the Great and Darius of Persia. In early Islamic times (august 686AD) the river was a site of a battle between the armies of Ibraheem al-Ashtar and Ubaidullah bin Ziyad,〔al-Syyed, Kamal. "The Battle of al-Khazir". Mukhtar al-Thaqafi. Qum, Iran: Ansariyan Foundation. p. 21.〕〔().〕〔(Al-Mukhtār ibn Abū ʿUbayd al-Thaqafi ), in Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc. 2013.〕 during the revolt of Mukhtar al-Thaqafi. On 25th January 750 AD the Battle of the Zab was fought nearby. In 2014, following bombing by US planes, ISIL forces retreated back to the Khazir River.〔Raja Abdulrahim, The Daily Herald 5 October 2014 (Iraqi Kurdish forces move toward complex battle in Mosul ).〕 in which ISIL destroyed bridges built by the Americans 10years prior.〔(COALITION EFFORTS AID IRAQ'S RECOVERY ) 3rd May 2003.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Khazir River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
