Tigris River, Wasit Governorate, Dhi Qar GovernorateAbstract
The course of the old Tigris River is located between three governorates (Wasit - Maysan - Dhi Qar) as it is surrounded from the east and north by the current Tigris River, from the west by the Gharraf River and from the south by the Euphrates River. The area of the study area is (16473.2 km2). Tigris in the selected study area was characterized by its instability in its course through time, from the Pleistocene to the Sassanid era. Its last change was at the end of the Sassanid era, when the stream moved from its original course in which it was running through Kut to Nassiriyah to its current course from Kut to Amara.
