Indo-Mesopotamia relations

Indo–Mesopotamia relations are thought to have developed during the second half of the 3rd millennium BCE, until they came to a halt with the extinction of the Indus Valley Civilization after around 1900 BCE. Mesopotamia had already been an intermediary in the trade of lapis lazuli between the Indus Valley and Egypt since at least about 3200 BCE, in the context of Egypt-Mesopotamia relations.
