The Zab (also known as the Zawa in Syriac) is a river that splits from the Tigris and flows from northern Iraq into southeastern Turkey. The river splits off into two main branches, with the little Zab in Iraq and the great Zab primarily in Turkey. Syriac is an Eastern Aramaic language that was once spoken across much of the Fertile Crescent. ... The Tigris (Old Persian: Tigr, Syriac Aramaic: Deqlath, Arabic: دجلة, Dijla, Turkish: Dicle; biblical Hiddekil) is the eastern member of the pair of great rivers that define Mesopotamia, along with the Euphrates, which flows from the mountains of Anatolia through Iraq. ...
It forms the approximate boundary of the Kurdish-populated region of Iraq and is used as the political boundary of the Kurdish Autonomous Region.
In 750 CE, the Great Zab was the scene of the Battle of the Zab between the Umayyads and the Abbasids.
Because of this, as well as its ancient importance as a basis for the Assyrian civilisation, the Great Zab is represented on the Assyrian flag by four white streams flowing from the flag's centre.
