The conflict in Syria and the difficulties that this human, economic and political drama is generating in the country and in nearby areas, guided the team's research towards northern Iraq, in the historical region of Kurdistan. Area that, since and thanks to the political and military stabilization of the area, has been opened to international research and offers an ideal framework for study and cooperation today. The fact that research in prehistoric archeology had been paralyzed since the s in this area facilitated the desire for collaboration and the possibilities of research work with local universities and the General Directorate of Antiquities. On the other hand, at a scientific level, the need to update archaeological data is considered essential and essential.
Two excavation and survey projects are currently underway in this area. On the one hand, the analysis of the Gird Laskhir settlement in the plain area of the current city of Erbil, which constitutes one of the most complete historical sequences in the region as it covers from the th millennium (Uruk period) to the first millennium.

At the end of the work, there were , metal objects georeferenced and associated with the battle , among which there were coins, weapons (spears, batteries , arrowheads, darts, etc.) and impedimenta material ( fibulae, sockets, spurs, bullae) . , etc.) and above all a large set of caligae tacks (basic for reconstructing the movements.
