Why is mesopotamia an appropriate name for the place where the civilizations of the Fertile Crescent first began?
The name Mesopotamia comes from the Greek for 'middle' and 'river,' and meant land between the rivers. It got this name because it referred to the land between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates in modern day Iraq. It was a toponym; that is, a name for a geographical area. It did not make any reference to the peoples who lived there. Mesopotamia was only one part of the Fertile Crescent. A crescent is a half moon-like shape. Mesopotamia was the north-south part in its east. The curved part and the north-south part in its west were Syria, Lebanon and Palestine.
