Did the Sumerians create the seven day week?
The Sumerians did not create the seven-day week; this concept is believed to have originated with the ancient Babylonians, who adopted a seven-day cycle based on lunar phases. The Sumerians had a different system of timekeeping, using a base-60 numerical system that influenced later cultures. The seven-day week gained prominence in various societies, including the Jewish tradition, and eventually spread widely, particularly through Roman and later Christian practices. Thus, while the Sumerians contributed significantly to early civilization, they were not the originators of the seven-day week.
