The area in which the Sumerians lived was subject to flash flooding because it was located along The Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. This provided fertile soil to produce surplus amounts of crops but was in some ways a disadvantage to the people because the floods would sometimes distroy their settlement and livestock.
