Ancient Village or Settlement in Iraq
Kutha is the name of two places, one factual and one mythical. The real Kutha was a town in the land of Akkad on the right bank of the eastern branch of the Upper Euphrates north of Nippur. It was the cult city of the god Nergal. Kutha was also the capital of the underworld, Irkalla, of Babylonian mythology.
