Tell Agrab, Archaeological settlement mound in Diyala Governorate, Iraq.
The settlement mound extends 600 meters in length and 500 meters in width, rising 12 meters above the surrounding landscape in the Diyala region.
Between 1935 and 1937, the Oriental Institute of Chicago conducted excavations at Tell Agrab, revealing fortification walls with defensive towers positioned every 19 meters.
The excavations uncovered a substantial Early Dynastic temple measuring 60 meters square, containing a main sanctuary with an altar and two additional smaller worship spaces.
The archaeological site sits at coordinates 33°20′20″N 44°52′28″E, approximately 20 kilometers southeast of the ancient city of Eshnunna in modern-day Iraq.
Archaeologists discovered a copper chariot pulled by four onagers at the site, representing one of the earliest examples of wheeled transportation in Mesopotamia.
