"The Jiroft civilization, discovered in Iran's Kerman province in the early 2000s, is a 3rd millennium BCE Bronze Age culture that archeologist Yusef Majidzadeh proposed is the mythical, wealthy city of Aratta mentioned in Sumerian texts.
Located along the Halil River, this, say supporters, represents a major, sophisticated, and potentially rival urban center to Mesopotamia."
