Dilmun - The Ancient Paradise of Mesopotamia
Update: 2025-03-17
Description
Dilmun, the ancient paradise of Mesopotamian mythology. Described in Sumerian texts as a land of purity, abundance, and divine favor, Dilmun was linked to legends such as the Epic of Gilgamesh and the myth of Enki and Ninhursag. However, historical records suggest Dilmun was also a real trade hub, likely corresponding to present-day Bahrain. Archaeological discoveries, including burial mounds and temple ruins, confirm its role as a major center of commerce. Though it declined over time, Dilmun’s legacy remains influential, with some scholars drawing parallels to the biblical Garden of Eden.
