The regional toponym Mesopotamia comes from the ancient Greek root words meso ("middle") and potamia ("river") and literally means "(Land) between rivers". It's the name for the area of the Tigris-Euphrates river system, which is modern-day Iraq, Kuwait, northeastern Syria, southeastern Turkey, and smaller parts of southwestern Iran.
Mesopotamia is roughly the region now known as Iraq, one of the places where civilization first started (in the form of city states.) "Meso" means "middle" or "between" and "potamia" refers to rivers; Mesopotamia is the area in and around the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. This is not a coincidence; other places where early civilizations began also were around rivers (such as the Nile or Indus Valley civilizations) because people needed an agricultural surplus in order to build cities and engage in other, specialized activities.
Things that enable civilization to emerge in Mezo potamia is, alot of people where becoming farmers because it was a suppy of food and animals that they knew they would have. Therefore they no longer needed to be hunter-gatherers. They settled in Mezopotamia (the land between the rivers) because it had all the essintials. It had a fresh water soure, flat land, good soil, and transportation. Hope this helps
The word 'Mesopotamia' comes from ancient Greek where the meso means 'between' or 'middle' and Potamia means 'rivers' - the land between rivers.The rivers in questions were and are the 'Tigris' and the 'Euphrates'.Mesopotamia (the area round modern day Iraq) was an ancient civilization contemporary with ancient Egypt.
"Mesopotamia" is a Greek word, based on the adjective "mesos", which means "located in the middle of" or "between...and...", and on the substantive "potamos", which means "river". The word indicates that the land was located between the river Euphrates and the river Tigris. Sorry if I don't speek fluently, I'm not an English native speaker !
