SNIPPETS FROM THE CHAPTER
I. Ancient Mesopotamia
Geography:
City life began in Mesopotamia (Mesopotamia is derived from the Greek words ‘mesos’, meaning middle, and ‘potamos’, meaning river.)
It is a flat land between the Euphrates and the Tigris rivers that is now part of the Republic of Iraq.
In the north, there is a stretch of upland called a steppe, where animal herding offers people a better livelihood than agriculture
Agriculture began between 7000 and 6000 BCE.
Soil was very fertile here but agriculture was threatened because of natural causes.
Ur, Lagash, Kish, Uruk and Mari were some of its important cities.
The excavation work started 150 years ago.
