main characteristics of mesopotamian civilization:
Irrigation
Mesopotamia was located on a large flood plain and it built an extensive man-made irrigation system that enabled it to grow a surplus of food. Mesopotamia relied on the annual flooding of the two rivers for fertility but the silt became an obstacle to its irrigation systems, which consisted of hundreds of channels that watered the crops.
Religion
Mesopotamian religion was polytheistic, meaning there were many gods and goddesses, as well as henotheistic, meaning that certain gods are viewed superior to others. In the latter Mesopotamian period, the people began ranking the deities in order of importance. Every god has a priest, temple and a traditional ritual and there were hundreds of temples scattered throughout each city.
