Answer 1

Answer:

Mesopotamia housed some of the world's most ancient states with highly developed social complexity. Mesopotamian people developed many technologies, among them metalworking, glassmaking, textile weaving, food control, and water storage and irrigation. They were also one of the first Bronze age people in the world. Early on they used copper, bronze and gold, and later they used iron. Palaces were decorated with hundreds of kilograms of these very expensive metals. Also, copper, bronze, and iron were used for armor as well as for different weapons such as swords, daggers, spears, and maces.Mesopotamian science and technology developed during the Uruk Period (4100-2900 BCE) and Early Dynastic Period (2900-1750 BCE) of the Sumerian culture of southern Mesopotamia. The foundation of future Mesopotamian advances in scientific/technological progress was laid by the Sumerians who first explored the practice of the scientific hypothesis, engaged in technological innovation, and created the written word, developed mathematics, astronomy and astrology, and even fashioned the concept of time itself. Some of the most important inventions of the Sumerians were:

• The Wheel

• The Sail
• Writing
• The Corbeled Arch/True Arch
• Irrigation and Farming Implements
• Cities
• Maps
• Mathematics
• Time and Clocks
• Astronomy and Astrology
• Medicinal Drugs and Surgery

The Sumerians created these things in an effort to improve their lives but must have arrived at the need for them through observation of an existing problem and proposing a solution which was then tested. Some scholars object to the use of the terms 'science' or 'scientific method' in referring to Sumerian/Mesopotamian inventions and innovations because religion played such an important role in the people’s lives and the will of the gods was considered the final and only factor in how the universe and life on earth operated.

Even so, 'scientific method' is the most precise term for how the people proceeded because the Mesopotamians, while keeping to a theistic concept of life, allowed themselves to imagine a world which operated according to certain natural laws, and in attempting to find out how, they laid the foundation for scientific inquiry which would later be developed by
