* - '''Note:''' The writer of Genesis, Moses identified the Hiddeqel as the one going East of Asshur. This can support the belief: the river wasn't permanently destroyed during the Great Flood. In modern terms wouldn't it be like saying: The Tigris river which flows Eastwards in Northern Iraq? | |||
