Deep in the deserts of Iraq, the lost city of Charax Spasinou has finally been found. It seems it had been hiding under the Earth for more than a millennium. Experts say the city was one of Alexander the Great’s final ambitious settlements. As reported by Archaeology News, once a bustling trade hub along the Tigris River, Charax Spasinou now emerges, at least digitally. It appears the city was bigger than anyone expected with streets, temples, and even industrial workshops coming into view. For historians, it’s like seeing a whole new chapter of the ancient world open up, one long buried under dust and time.
