Surplus food -

After the Sumerians developed irrigation systems, they grew more wheat and barley than they needed at one time.

Division of labor -

Large teams of Sumerian workers cultivated the fields, and irrigated and harvested crops. Some continued to farm, but others became carpenters, metal-workers, potters, weavers, merchants, soldiers, doctors, etc.

Cities -

People clustered together in villages and towns to find work, sell their goods, store their grain, and bargain for food. Villages and towns grew into cities as more and more people came together. Ur, Uruk, Kish, Lagash, and Umma are examples of Sumerian cities.

Sumer was conquered many times. in about 2800 B.C. King Gilgamesh rules the city of Uruk 2400 B.C. Sargon I of Akkad conquers Sumer. 2000 B.C. Sumerians conquered by Amorites, from Babylon 1600 B.C.

His name was Nimrod. According to the Book of Genesis and Books of Chronicles, the son of Cush, the great-grandson of Noah. The Bible states that he was "a mighty hunter before the Lord [and] .... began to be mighty in the earth". Extra-biblical traditions associating him with the Tower of Babelle to his reputation as a king who was rebellious against God. Since Accad (Babylonian Akkad) was destroyed and lost with the destruction of its Empire in the period 2200-2154 BC (long chronology), the stories mentioning Nimrod seem to recall the late Early Bronze Age. The association with Erech (Babylonian Uruk), a city that lost its prime importance around 2,000 BC as a result of struggles between Isin, Larsa and Elam, also attests the early provenance of the stories of Nimrod. Several Mesopotamian ruins were given Nimrod's name by 8th-century Arabs, including the ruins of the Assyrian city of Kalhu (the biblical Calah), built by Shalmaneser I (1274-1244 BC).

The Sumer civilization started with Military leaders as rulers then priests took over who granted kings power. It was a rather remarkable civilization. The empire finally came to an end when it got attacked, and that was the rise and fall of the Sumer empire.

The Sumerian civilization (the first civilization on Earth) appeared 9000 years ago. Because spelt grew on the banks of the Tigris and the Euphrates river, humans became sedentary. They began to cultivate these lands and invent new farming techniques. After that they invented writing and Architecture. Later, they began to build big cities.

It is located near the Persian Gulf, the cities within Sumer are Babylon and Kish

Good Luck!

The Sumerians overtook the settlers in the Tigris/Euphrates river valley in 3500 B.C.E. and they were taken over by the Assyrians in 900 B.C.E

The Incas were very smart people because unlike us they put their flower beds floating on water so if the plants needed a drink the water was right under them. But when the people had to weed the plants and crops that means that they had to stand almost on water and risk falling in.

The Mesopotamians used clay and water, and they also used mud to build bricks. The Mesopotamians used clay and water to make he buildings stronger and higher like a skycrspper like a Ziggurat.

Sumerians are the ancient people from the Mesopotamian area (present-day Iraq) who invented written language, the wheel, and many other things that helped form civilizations. Believe it or not, the Sumerians claimed that humanity is the result of a genetic experiment. They believe that aliens came to Earth to harvest gold to replenish the atmosphere of their home world. This is theoretically possible because gold can be used to oxidize carbon monoxide, causing oxygen to be released into the atmosphere. Initially, the aliens mined the gold personally, but later they agreed to mix their DNA with the DNA of prehistoric man. According to the Sumerian tablets, man revered these aliens as living gods. It was not slavery at all, as man benefited greatly from the knowledge of the aliens and was happy to be of service. Many ancient cultures around the world believe their gods came down from outer space and created us to harvest gold.

The reasons for the development of measurements by the Sumerians was for measuring land plots and taxation purposes. Measurements were used as early as the 6th millennium B.C. The Sumerians had weights and measurement tables.

The two primary rivers the Sumerians used were the Tigris and the Euphrates, for trading and agricultural purposes.

This early type of writing practised by the Ancient Sumerians is called cuneiform or impressing onto clay tablets an alphabet as well as numbers or scores to record anything from a simple bill of sale, a record of what was bought or sold, inventories of storehouses and even marriage, dowry, and letters of communication. Clay was abundant and inexpensive. Papyrus developed later was a time consuming, labour. A dried and kiln fired clay tablet was a bit heavy, yet so durable they have been unearthed today intact. The soft clay was pressed into by a scribe who used a stylus typical shapes were triangle shaped at the end and the other end round or elongated. Errors could be easily wiped clear and edited with a soft wet cloth. Once the tablet was sealed by its preparer or signed, it was dried then fired as pottery was. A recorded event, a bill of sale an army captains orders could then be dispatched in a written form. Some tablets have been found to contain more than one persons recorded information almost resembling "scratch" paper notes reused until no space remains or like a card signed by more than one author.

Sumerian society was like today's society a combination of rural and city living. Like today's (USA) society, it had a population with several ethnic backgrounds.

Unlike today's society, Sumerian society worshipped a great number of gods and each city had its own gods to add to them. Secondly, Sumerians believed that the earth was a flat disc.
