The greatest cities in the history of mankind

Tel-Brak, 5 thousand years B.C., 4000 inhabitants.

This city was located in the territory of modern Syria. In ancient documents it is said that it had the name Nagar.

This large city was part of the main trade route, which united Anatolia, Levant and southern Mesopotamia. The ancient city became famous all over the world for its “Temple of the Eye”. There is very little information about this building, and it got its name because of the numerous alabaster figures of the big-eyed idols that were discovered there.
