Chaldea

From Warlike




Chaldea refers to a region probably located in the marshy land of southern Mesopotamia. It is mentioned, with varying meaning, in Neo-Assyrian cuneiform, the Hebrew Bible, and in classical Greek texts. The Hebrew Bible uses the term כשדים (Kaśdim), and this is translated as Chaldaeans in the Christian Greek Old Testament.
