DemographicsQalat Sukkar has a population of 110,000.[2] LocationQalat Sukar is located on a ridge west of the Gharraf Canal (the old canal that the Sumerians dug up some 4000 years ago). Qalat Sukar is 6 km northeast of the remains of the ancient Sumerian city of Larsa.[3] A modern drainage canal separates Qalat Sukar from Larsa Tell.[3] James Abbott Sauer and Khair Yassine, believe that because of the name, and the former marshlands in the area,[4] it is likely that Qalat Sukar was originally the site of a sugar mill,[5] constructed after sugarcane was introduced into the area in the ninth century.[6] The nearest large city is An Nasiriyah, Iraq with a population of 587,000. AirfieldDuring the Iraq War, the Qalat Sukkar Airfield was occupied by the US Marines and called Camp Fenway.[7] Notes1. ^ 2. ^{{cite web| url=http://www.world-gazetteer.com/wg.php?x=1235170606&men=gcis&lng=en&des=gamelan&srt=epnn&col=abcdefghimoq&msz=1500&geo=-1890| title="Đī Qār: largest cities and towns and statistics of their population:Qal'at Sukkar" World Gazetteer| archiveurl=https://archive.today/20130105081824/http://www.world-gazetteer.com/wg.php?x=1235170606&men=gcis&lng=en&des=gamelan&srt=epnn&col=abcdefghimoq&msz=1500&geo=-1890| archivedate=5 January 2013| deadurl=yes| df=dmy-all}} World Gazetteer, accessed 19 February 2009 3. ^1 "31.3333°,45.8828° – 31.2858°,45.8536° : 5.964 km / 3.707 m (great circle distance)" (distance between Qalat Sukar and Larsa Tell), Movable Type Scripts, accessed 19 February 2009 4. ^Dougherty, Raymond P; (1926); Bulletin of the American Schools of Oriental Research; "An Archæological Survey in Southern Babylonia I;" No. 23; pp. 15–28 5. ^Tell es-Sukkar in Ibrahim; Mo 'Awiyah; Sauer, James Abbott and Yassine, Khair; (1976); Bulletin of the American Schools of Oriental Research; "The East Jordan Valley Survey, 1975;" No. 222, pp. 41–66 6. ^Yeats, John (1887) The Natural History of the Raw Materials of Commerce (3rd ed.)
