Could not find a ref for the excavation, if it ever happened

Not only was there nothing in the lit about an excavation, Hadji Muhammed was only even mentioned once or twice. I wonder if this even should be a standalone article.Ploversegg (talk) 04:03, 8 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Wikidata has this source on a 1937-1939 excavation: Roux, Georges (1992). Ancient Iraq. London. ISBN 0-14-193825-0. OCLC 1052118729.{{cite book}}: CS1 maint: location missing publisher (link). I have no doubt that the site/excavation are real, but I agree that information is hard to come by. For example, Oates, Joan (1960). "Ur and Eridu, the Prehistory". Iraq. 22: 32–50. doi:10.2307/4199667. ISSN 0021-0889. compares the material from Eridu directly with that of the "type site Hajji Muhammad" but unfortunately no links are given. Might well be that the original excavation report was never published. Zoeperkoe (talk) 09:01, 8 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Good work. I was beginning to think the whole thing was a myth.Ploversegg (talk) 23:31, 8 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
