The Sumerians used levees, canals, and dams for controlling water. These are all different systems of irrigation. With levees, canals, and dams the Sumerians had a reliable water source. They had plenty of water for their crops. These systems of irrigation helped bring neighboring communities together. When there was a problem with the dam, canal, or levees, the people around would help each other out by taking care of their systems of irrigation
