Note 3 — Chapter XVIII · ROUND NIMRUD BY LAKE NAZIK
Reading edition
The Kaimakam of Akhlat, who knows the district well, assured us that there was a permanent outlet. Layard, on the other hand, speaks of an intermittent one (Discoveries in the Ruins of Nineveh and Babylon, London, 1853, p. 21). I regret that I am unable to express certainty on the point. In the case of Lake Bulama, however, I am able to vouch for the fact that its waters find their way to the Murad. ↑
