Why did the Mesopotamians leave the zagros mountains and move to the plains of ancient mesopotamia?

There were many reasons why the Mesopotamians moved from the Zagros Mountains to the plains. One reason why the Mesopotamians moved to the plains was because there was an over population in Mesopotamia. They had too many babies and besides the increase of population there was not enough food provided to the Mesopotamians. Another example why they moved to the plains was because the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers would either flood or cause droughts. The way this was solved was by creating irrigation systems and levees. These are reasons why the Mesopotamians moved from the Zagros Mountains to the plains of Mesopotamia.


How did the Mesopotamians control the Tigris and Euphrates rivers?

the Mesopotamians would make levees. the levees helped store the water in one place .the levees led to an irrigation system .the irrigation systems would help water crops .the watered crops would lead to a food surplus which led to an increase of population and to division of labor.division of labor is since the Mesopotamians didn't have to worry about the droughts they had time to do other things like making pottery


How predictable is a drought?

Depends on the situation. Some droughts happen all of a sudden but most of the time droughts are pretty predictable. You start losing water and not being able to get as much water as you used to. Usually small towns deal with it as a whole and ration off water to each family. Large cities however deal with it differently.
