Sumer

No. Nearly all scholars agree that there never was an Exodus from Egypt as described in the Bible, which means that the tablets, on which the Ten Commandments were written, never existed. The Book of Exodus, which contains the Ten Commandments and the story of the tablets, was written in the middle of the first millennium BCE.

ANSWER: Christians who believe the Bible believe the Ten Commandment Tablets are real. They were placed in the Arc of the Covenant, but since the Arc has disappeared we do not know what happened to the Tablets. But Exodus 20:1-17 gives us the Ten Commandments.

1. The roads built in the early years influenced better road netoworks later on in Sumer.

The Sumerians advanced their civilizations in several ways. They invented writing and mathematics which advanced things greatly. They also invented the wheel, which advanced trade and travel.

Sumerians invented adding, subtracting, dividing and multiplying. The math were only taught in school.

( Uh excuse me but no yur wrong actually it's not summer school you dumb nut so how dumb can you be!) The earliest schools in human history were founded in ancient Sumer in ziggurat to train scribes, people who could write, for work in the church, business, or government.

If you mean where the Sumerians lived, then they lived in the Fertile Crescent. That was the river valley of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. Just in case you don't have a map at hand, the Fertile Crescent is and was located in the Middle East.

The Sumerians lost power because the Akkadians invaded the city-states and took over everything.

Sumer is a civilization because it fits all characteristics of a civilization. First, Sumer has a stable food supply (for food for the people). Then, Sumer had a social structure (different social levels and jobs). A system of government (to ensure that life in the society is orderly). Religous system (involves sets of beliefs and forms of worship). Highly developed way of life (includes the arts, painting, architecture, and music). Advances in technology (for example, Sumerians invented the wheel). And last, but not least, a highly developed written language (Sumerians invented Cuneiform). Hope the answer helped! :D

Sumerian communities were divided by social structure. There were 3 social classes/or groups.

At the top was the upper class. They had the most money and power. In this class there were the priests, kings, government officials, and warriors. They had finer homes.

Then came the middle class. There was the artisans, merchants, farmers, and traders. If you needed something they were the ones who had stuff. Normal people lived in small mud-brick houses.

Lastly, came the lower class. They were treated harshly. They were considered the enslaved farmers, people forced to work in temples, an slaves.

The Sumerian communities were divided into city-states. At the center of each city-state there was a ziggurat. They beleived that the gods lived here. Only gods/godesses were allowed in here.

The collapse of the sumerian empire happened because the code of laws were expected to pass down to civilization to civilization(Sumerian to babyloin).

There where MANY they where MONOTHEISM mono means many and theism means gods.. So the answer cant be exact(:

Im doing a project about that so im sure that's the answer (:

CORRECTION: Monotheism means "belief in one god" because 'mono' means one, and 'theism' means gods. If that is the case, that means, they only believe in one god.
