Babylonia is considered one of the first urban civilizations. Urban centers were surrounded by villages. There were three strata of society. The Upper class, Awilu, the lower class, Mushkenu and the slaves, Wardu. Women had some legal rights such as owning businesses and property, but the men had more legal rights. The could literally sell their wives and children into slavery if they could not pay for them.
