Mesopotamia's rivers (Tigris and Euphrates) are key to their civilization. Because of the rivers Sumerians (Mesopotamia's people) could trade and travel through them. Not to mention just plain drinking water. Another benefit of the rivers was irrigation. Hammurabi (a Mesopotamian king) had helped find a way to control the floods to benefit farming.
Since they lived in the fertile crescent, I would probably say the land that they lived on. It was key to their survival,and they could travel to other lands to barter of hunt.

The river that runs through Turkey, Syria, and Iraq is the Euphrates River.
The rivers provided water and means of travel.In ancient times, it was easier to travel by boat than over land. Boats can carry heavy loads. River currents helped move boats that were traveling down river. Also, few roads existed.
