Tell Rijim is an archaeological site in Iraq, in ancient Upper Mesopotamia,[1] in the valley of the Tigris River, about 25 kilometers to the north-west of Eski Mosul.
[2] Excavations on Tell Rijim were conducted by an expedition from the Polish Centre of Mediterranean Archaeology University of Warsaw, directed by Piotr Bieliński, during three field seasons.
They consisted of buildings with stone foundations, rectangular rooms, and paved courtyards; the houses were furnished with bread ovens.
[4] The best-preserved are the remains of a settlement of the Khabur Ware Culture from the first half of the 2nd millennium BC, which was surrounded by a defense wall.
A large part of a residential building was uncovered in the western area of the site and Ninevite 5 graves in the central one.
