The Norias of Hama is a series of 17 norias, historic water-raising machines for irrigation along the Orontes River in the city of Hama, Syria. Specific dates are known for the two exceptionally large norias from their inscriptions: Noria al-Muhammadiya, created in 1361 CE and Noria al-Ma’muriyya in 1453 CE. A 13th-century regional historian wrote that norias existed in Hama in the late 9th century CE with Norias in use near Hama by 350 CE, judging from mosaics and tiles bearing images of norias at a city close to Hama.

Our prints are made-to-order using the revered Giclée printing method, ensuring exceptional detail and vibrant colors.
