The ancient Sumerians viewed slavery as a common institution in their society, integral to their economy and daily life. Slaves were typically war captives, debtors, or those born into servitude, and they could be owned by individuals or temples. While their status was subordinate, some slaves could earn wages, buy their freedom, or own property, indicating a complex relationship with their condition. Overall, slavery was accepted and regulated within Sumerian law, reflecting its normalization in their culture.

No, the Sumerians did not have Vedas. The Vedas are ancient sacred texts of Hinduism that originated in ancient India, while the Sumerians were an early civilization in Mesopotamia, existing around 3500 to 2000 BCE. The two cultures were distinct and developed their own religious texts and traditions independently.

When speaking about ancient Rome, it is proper to make judgements based on the context of ancient times and other ancient empires. Based on one's subjectivity, ancient Rome's "negatives" as asked in the question can be many or few, once again based on a person's point of view. In my view two negatives stand out: one are the gladiator combats for "entertainment". As far as I know, most ancient empires did not have this type of entertainment. Another negative in my view was the use of massive slavery. Many ancient civilizations had slaves, no question about that. However, in ancient Rome slavery was an institution that ancient Rome grew to be almost an addiction. Taken as a whole however, it is my view that in terms of ancient empires, the Roman empire had more positives than negatives taken in the context of its time in history.
