Qatna Archaeological Park

Qatna Archaeological Park in Tell Mishrifeh in Syria houses the ruins of what was the thriving ancient Mesopotamian city of Qatna. Known to have first been occupied in the 3rd millennium BC, Qatna’s location on a crossroad between the Mitanni empire and the ancient Egyptians allowed it to flourish. And in the period between 1600BC and 1200BC, the Late Bronze Age, it grew to become a local kingdom.
