One of the oldest and most amazing civilisations that we can be thankful for their discoveries, developments and general advancement of the human race, used to bear a Greek name and although the Greeks referred to a very specific region, now known as Iraq, the name has come to represent a much wider area and academics use it to chronologically defined eras. We find the name as early as the 2nd century AD in Greek writing and until 1921 when it was officially changed, it was used interchangeably for many places between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates. Μέσο (meso) in ancient Greek and Μέση (mesi) in modern means 'the middle' and Ποταμός (potamos) means 'river'. The land between two rivers is ΜΕΣΟΠΟΤΑΜΙΑ/MESOPOTAMIA
