Editor's Note
Hirbemerdon Tepe is an archaeological mound on the western bank of the Tigris River, about 40 km east of Bismil in Diyarbakır Province. Settlement began in the fourth millennium BCE during the Chalcolithic era and continued until Ottoman times. Owing to its strategic location near agricultural terraces by the Tigris, it is considered an important site for understanding the relationship between agricultural communities and nomadic pastoralist societies in northern Mesopotamia.
