Those villages were thriving economically and scientifically during the Middle Ages, but now some of them have been consigned to oblivion, and there are just ruins and archaeological hills bearing their old names remaining. The names suffered from corruption of the letters of words and from attributing names to some sites wrongly, and the reverse is true. Nonetheless, the description of their geographical position on the Tigris banks and both Zabs the Greater and the Lesser or their positions in their Kawars and their multitude of districts made the picture clearer and contributed to pinpointing their position according to geographical and historical texts, besides the researcher's views and conclusions.
