Mesopotamia

how did the arly Mesopotamians contribute to the development of culture

Artisans made pots, clothes and many other things.

yes they did

Sometimes, the Mesopotamians used donkeys for travel. Or, maybe even by foot. Sometimes, the Mesopotamians used boats made from large, thick, strong reeds from the riverside. And, since the Mesopotamians invented the wheel, they can use a wagon for a few miles or so for travel. It really depends on where your headed.

A ziggurat was a tall tower made of mud brick they could be found near temples all over Mesopotamia. Mesopotamians believed that the god of that temple resided at the top. They were used as religious worshiping objects.

Citizenship. While there are no Mesopotamian terms for "citizen" before the law nor any known declarations of citizens' rights, existing written texts indicate that distinctions were drawn between native-born "sons of the city" or "sons of the land" on the one hand and foreign residents on the other. In court records and ration lists, for example, the name of a foreign-born citizen appears with a notation regarding geographic origin, such as "Kassite" or "Elamite." The king's first obligation seems to have been to his native born subjects. According to a didactic literary composition known as Advice to a Prince, (If a king) denied due process to a citizen (literally "son") of (the Babylonian city of) Sippar, but granted it to an alien, (the god) Shamash, judge of heaven and earth, will establish an alien due process in his land, and neither princes nor judges will have regard for due process.

The Tigris and Euphrates rivers because they surround Ancient Mesopotamia.

Mesopotamia was where civilization began. It started the civilization trend. Many followed right after(e.g. Eridu). It also started many other things such as irrigation and larger scale agriculture, domestication of animals, wine, mud bricks and many others. Mesopotamia was also the sight for many historical, biblical artifacts(e.g The Dead Sea Scrolls.

there are many inventions in Mesopotamia, they invented the wheel, and cylinder seal, and the cuneiform and too many more things.

the wheel is used to move things and it was easy for them to do that because it do not have any side.

the cylinder seal is used as a sign, every body have another shape, and also they where writing some words with it.

the cuneiform is used to write on, they used to record every thing they do because they believed in education.

The fertile Euphrates and Tigris River valleys surrounded by desert, mountains and the Persian Gulf.

3500 BC is one estimate, however, archaeologists point to the early Sumerians in 4,000BC. It arose appropriately in Sumer in the area now known as Iraq. The Sumerian civilization consisted of independent and fortified city states. These cities were often at war with each other. Agriculture was the economic basis of the Sumerians.

The city state of north mesopotamia is known as Assyria and the people are called Assyrians

If you mean Herod the Great, he lived mainly in Jerusalem which was his capital. However, as he was a great builder, he had palaces all over the country and also at the city of Caesarea. He also built the retreat atop Masada.

The religious beliefs of the Mesopotamians and the Hebrews were remarkably similar, at least before the Deuteronomistic reforms of King Josiah of Judah, in the seventh century BCE. The dominant gods seem to have been the sun god, moon god and a storm god, although the names were different in different regions and over time. Baal has been identified as a storm god, and some scholars say that Yahweh was also originally a storm god. The golden calf associated with the Exodus and the reign of Jereboam was a symbol of the moon god.

The dominant goddess was the mother goddess and fertility goddess, usually associated with Venus, and therefore known as the Queen of Heaven. In Mesopotamia she was often called Astarte, while in Israel and Judah she was Asherah.

The biblical creation and flood stories also have parallels in ancient Mesopotamia.

The Persians did not come from Mesopotamia - they were a vassal of Media, which they took over and then with their help, conquered the Babylonian Empire in Mesopotamia. They then expanded this empire to include all the Middle East, Egypt and east as far as today's Pakistan. This empire lasted for two hundred years until taken over by Alexander the Great.

Through military power. He conquered the Sumerian cities. He then conquered the fertile crescent (Mesopotamia and the Levant -the coastal area south of Turkey). he also conquered Elam, a civilisation in the far west and southwest of Iran. Wherever he went he sacked cities. Later the empire expanded further, but his conquest sremained its bulk and core.

The river flooded which made the soil fertile & good for farming. It also provided people with fish, drinking water, clay for buildings, & strong reeds to make boats out of....

Mesopotamia means "land between 2 rivers". It was between the Tigris & Euphratis.
