The floods in mesopotamia were common and irregular, but the mesopotanians dealt with that by living on high banks of rock near the rivers tigress and Euphrate. When the river flooded, the water would go through the banks, not over them, and the rocks would filter out debris. The debris free and nutrient rich water would then water the crops in the fields.
