Food historians are using taste-tests to recover forgotten flavours of Ancient Babylonia's soups and stews.
The four clay clay tablets are the only food recipes that exist.
They were discovered in 1911 in the Yale Babylonian Collection in the Middle East .
The mere fact of their existence is a mystery, but food historians are trying to find out what they meant.
Modern Iraqi cuisine is not a replica of what was eaten in Babylon .
Islam also arrived in the Middle East , making pork a less popular ingredient, and the Colombian Exchange (the trade between the Americas and Europe from the 15th Century ) brought tomatoes, aubergines and potatoes from the New World .
Who knows if, 3,000 years from now , people sat where you are now will be eating anything like what you have today ?.
