This is just a small tribute to all the incredibly brave people, who have been fighting and risking their own lives, to preserve and rescue our worldwide historical and archaeological heritage, as well as the core of our often forgotten thousand-year-old civilizations.
Special thanks to Layla Salih, one of the most courageous women I’ve ever met.
All pictures were taken at Mosul Historical Museum, in the western side of Mosul city, in April 2017.
