Is soil in the ancient Fertile Crescent region still rich?
No unfortunately it isn't, but there is no doubt it was.Since the Fertile Crescent is the birthplace of agriculture, it has had plenty of time to experience the wear and tear of agriculture. A significant climate change also around 5000 BCE (?) caused mass migrations out of the fertile crescent because of a lack of food.In Jared Diamond's book Guns, Germs, and Steel, he gives a quick explanation to why the Fertile Crescent is no longer fertile

What is the location of early civilizations?
The location of development for many of the earliest civilizations was the Fertile Crescent. This was an area between the Nile Valley and Western Asia.

The rivers that fed into the Fertile Crescent were the Tigris and Euphrates in Asia, and the Nile in Upper and Lower Egypt.

What makes the fertile crescent so fertile?
Since the Fertile Crescent extended from the Persian Gulf till the Nile River Valley. The rivers flooded often and the water extended to the land, as the water returned to the water land, or absorbed into the land, it left a lot of SILT. This element caused the soil to be really rich and fertile. HOPE THIS HELPS :))

Why are the Tigris and the Euphrates river?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tigris%E2%80%93Euphrates_river_systemBasically, the region is a desert and water meant life or death. If you controlled the water then you had power and God made it.the Tigris and Euphrates were so important because they caused flooding in Mesopotamia which fed the soil. the Area between the two rivers is referred to as the fertile crescent. without the flooding the fertile crescent would have become desert like leading to starvation. It is also thought that the fertile crescent is the heart of the neolithic revolution which lead to how we farm today.
