Untitled[edit]

The article fails to mention that the former govermnent under Saddam and his predecessor Ahmad Hassan Al-Bakr ordered the building of the Qadissiyah dam on the Euphraetes river downstream of Anah. This resulted in the creation of a lake that caused massive destruction to Anah.

Merge with Annah[edit]

Anah and Annah seem to be the same. Merge? -- Zoeperkoe (talk) 16:28, 31 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

EB cut-and-paste[edit]

Is usually fine but this passage

Ammianus<ref>lib. 24, c. 2.</ref> calls it a ''munimentum'', [[Theophylactus Simocatta]]<ref>iv. 10, v. 1, 2.</ref> ''to 'Anathon frourion'', [[Zosimus]]<ref>iii. 14.</ref> a ''frourion'', opp. Fathusai, which may be the Beth(th) ina of Ptolemy (v. 19).<ref>Steph. Byz. (sub Turos) says that [[Arrian]] calls Anatha Turos.</ref>

needs to have all of the Latin and transliterated Greek translated and explained prior to inclusion. — $Llywelyn II$ 04:38, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Fwiw, the actual Greek is τό Άναθων φρούριον, tó Anathōn phroúrion and φρούριον, phroúrion and Φαθυσαι, psathysai. — $Llywelyn II$ 04:40, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
