The Mesopotamians measured time using a sexagesimal (base-60) system, which influenced how they divided the day and the year. They divided the day into 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night, with each hour further divided into 60 minutes. Additionally, they used lunar cycles to create a calendar, which typically involved 12 months based on the phases of the moon. This system laid the groundwork for many modern timekeeping practices.
