Pashime, also Bashime ( ba-si-meKI), was an ancient region of southern Mesopotamia. It has recently been identified with Tell Abu Sheeja, Iraq, about 7 km from Iraq's border with Iran. Pashime corresponded to an area of interaction between Mesopotamia and Elam. Its patron god was Shuda. The city of Pashime was previously thought to be located on the Persian Gulf.Mohammad, A., Hamza, H.A., Kadhum, A., "The Excavations of Tell Abu Sheeja, The 1st Season 2007", Sumer 53, pp. 61-110, ('05/'06) (arabic) Read more on Wikipedia
