earliest known love letter


The oldest known love letter is in the Istanbul Archeological Museum in Turkey. It was found about 2200 B.C in the Niffer Valley, about 150 km from Baghdad, Iraq. It was a tradition for the bride to write a romantic poem for her husband on the night they were to marry. The content of the poem was very meaningful and it was intended only for beloved spouse.
