The Restoration of the Ancient Irrigation Works on the Tigris: Or The Re-Creation of Chaldea is a historical book published in 1903 by William Willcocks. The book focuses on the restoration of the ancient irrigation works on the Tigris River in the region of Chaldea, which was once a prosperous and fertile area in Mesopotamia. Willcocks, who was a British civil engineer, was involved in the project to restore the irrigation system in the early 1900s. In this book, he provides a detailed account of the history of the irrigation system in Chaldea, including its decline and eventual abandonment. He also describes the efforts made to restore the system, which involved the use of modern engineering techniques and the collaboration of local communities. The book includes maps, diagrams, and photographs to illustrate the irrigation system and the surrounding landscape. Overall, The Restoration of the Ancient Irrigation Works on the Tigris provides a fascinating insight into the history and engineering of one of the world's oldest irrigation systems.With Two Appendices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
