First of all, Akkad was not in Mesopotamia. Yes, they did have irrigation canals to bring water into the cities.
The precise archaeological site of the city of Akkad has not yet been found. Maybe it was destroyed totally but Akkad was in western Iraq close where Babylon has the capital city before they constructed it. So the difference was the time period.
Akkad !!
There are seven great cities in Mesopotamia. The seven cities are: the Uruk, Akkad, Assur, Babylon, Nimrud, Nineveh, and the Persepolis.
Cities of Sumer and Akkad were defeated and captured and some occupied or recolonised.
Akkad! Its n his name!
