Answer:Dilmun, or Telmun,[2] (Sumerian: Dilmun (early Sumerian pictograph).jpg,[3][4] later (), ni.tukki = DILMUNki; Arabic: دلمون‎) was an ancient Semitic-speaking polity in Arabia mentioned from the 3rd millennium BC onwards.[5][6] Based on textual evidence, it was located in the Persian Gulf, on a trade route between Mesopotamia and the Indus Valley Civilisation, close to the sea and to artesian springs.[1][7] A number of scholars have suggested that Dilmun originally designated the eastern province of Saudi Arabia, notably linked with the major Dilmunite settlements of Umm an-Nussi and Umm ar-Ramadh in the interior and Tarout on the coast.[8] Dilmun encompassed Bahrain, Kuwait,[9] Qatar and the eastern portion regions of Saudi Arabia.[10] This area is certainly what is meant by references to "Dilmun" among the lands conquered by King Sargon of Akkad and his descendants.[citation needed]

The great commercial and trading connections between Mesopotamia and Dilmun were strong and profound to the point where Dilmun was a central figure to the Sumerian creation myth.[11] Dilmun was described in the saga of Enki and Ninhursag as pre-existing in paradisiacal state, where predators don't kill, pain and diseases are absent, and people do not get old.[11]

Dilmun was an important trading centre. At the height of its power, it controlled the Persian Gulf trading routes.[1] According to some modern theories, the Sumerians regarded Dilmun as a sacred place,[12] but that is never stated in any known ancient text. Dilmun was mentioned by the Mesopotamians as a trade partner, a source of copper, and a trade entrepôt.

The Sumerian tale of the garden paradise of Dilmun may have been an inspiration for the Garden of Eden story.
