Articles relating to the Hassuna culture (6th millennium BC), a Neolithic archaeological culture in northern Mesopotamia. The culture appears in the foothills of northernmost Mesopotamia, where there was enough rainfall to allow for "dry" agriculture in some places. These were the first farmers in northernmost Mesopotamia. They made Hassuna-style pottery (cream slip with reddish paint in linear designs). Hassuna people lived in small villages or hamlets ranging 2-8 acre.
