The town of `Anah (`Anat in Syriac) on the Euphrates has existed since Old Babylonian times, but shifted its location in the vicinity of the bend of the river; in Assyrian times it was located on an island in the Euphrates. The historical site was abandoned in the 20th century in favor of a location a few miles to the southeast, which now bears the same name.
