Beth Nahrain (Aramaic: ܒܝܬ ܢܗܪ̈ܝܢ; "the house/land of the two rivers") is the Aramaic name for the region known as Mesopotamia (Greek "land between the rivers"). It refers to the Euphrates and Tigris rivers of Iraq and Syria. The Aramaic name loosely describes the area of the rivers, not between like the literal Greek term; however both names refer to the same region.
