Anau (also spelled Annau, Turkmen: Änew) is a city in. Turkmenistan. It is the capital of Ahal Province and is 8 km southeast of Ashgabat which is connected via the M37 highway. Traces of habitation in the area date back to the 4th millennia BC, with fine painted potteries, and a seal that may contain the earliest evidence of the movement of writing Eastward toward China. The name Anau is from Persian Âbe nav (آب نو) meaning "New Water".[1]
