Tell Deir Situn

Nineveh, Iraq

Tell Deir Situn was an archeological site 45 km north-west of Nineveh, located in Iraq. The construction of a new dam northwest of Mosul, Iraq, led to a 1985 British Museum team unearthing two Hellenistic ruins called Tell Deir Situn and Grai Darki. The dig at Tell Deir Situn produced large amounts of pottery, a bronze Assyrian fibula, and a Seleucid era coin.
