We are a group of people who are passionate about Sumeria and the ancient civilisations of Mesopotamia. We would love to hear from you if you would like to work with us on this.
The logic of SumeriaHub is to make a comprehensive corpus of knowledge to readers, in a structure and in a presentation that makes it attractive.
