Mesopotamia By Dr Dominique Collon With Iraq currently in the world's spotlight, trace its beginnings in Mesopotamia - its name in ancient times. Mesopotamia has been called the 'cradle of civilisation' because agriculture, animal herding and domestication developed there earlier than anywhere else, almost 8,000 years ago. By 3,000 BC, the Mesopotamians had already invented the wheel, developed writing, and created the world's first cities and monumental architecture.

INTRODUCTION TO ANCIENT MESOPOTAMIA st May 2000 Emergence Excavation, Discovery and Decipherment Reconstructing History Table of Mesopotamian Chronology Emergence Lying within the western regions of modern-day Iraq, Mesopotamia - literally 'The Land between the Rivers' - is the name given since ancient times to the great alluvial plain built up by the silt deposits of the Euphrates in the west and the Tigris in the east. It extends from north of Baghdad down to the mouth of the Persian Gulf, and is bordered in the north and east by the vast mountain ranges stretching down from Kurdistan to the Zagros in Iran, in the west by the Syrian desert. The land is rich and fertile, ensuring high yields for farmers especially in ancient times. Indeed it has been identified with the biblical 'Garden of Eden', especially since the Euphrates is one of the rivers quoted in Genesis 2:14 as flowing out of it. However this is to over-simplify the matter. The annual flood levels are entirely dependent on the degree of inundation coming down from the surrounding mountain ranges, and this is highly variable - unlike, for example, the Nile plains in northern Egypt. The resulting alternation between drought and devastating flood made the area at worst highly vulnerable to famine, and at best an unpredictable place to live. Small wonder, say the traditionalists, that the early settlers revered their gods and prayed so much for favourable conditions. This unpredictability was coupled with the inhospitable terrain surrounding the plains, which harboured many well-protected potential enemies and ensured escape was difficult. Furthermore the land was lacking in fundamental resources for building work; stone, timber and metal were in short supply unless brought in from surrounding areas some distance away. It was not therefore the paradise for the earliest civilisations on earth to develop and flourish which some commentators would have us believe.

This period was brought to an end by the Hittites when in 1595 BC Babylon is sacked by King Mursili I. The city then had a mixed history until the Neo-Babylonian Period of the 7th-6th centuries BC.

ENVIRONMENT Most of Mesopotamia was located in the present day country of Iraq. The land of Mesopotamia was once dominated by floods, but today is mostly desert. The seasonal flooding was a challenge to the farmers of Mesopotamia. These farmers learned to control the flooding to some degree. The fertile land along the rivers produced such crops as wheat, barley, sesame, flax, and various fruits and vegetables. The land that was once marshes and channels that provided food, protection, and life to the people there, no longer exists.

Along with the texts are "translations, glossaries, grammatical indexes, basic bibliographic apparatus, basic text critical apparatus, and some graphic apparatus" as the introduction explains. Although thorough, the texts are therefore rather lengthy, which may make them too cumbersome for the student trying to extract useful information. Ryan Ainscough Ancient Economies Location: http://members.tripod.com/%7Esondmor/index.html Matt Gorski Ancient Economies II Location: http://www.angelfire.com/ms/ancecon/index.html Ancient Economies II is created through the ideas of Morris Silver, an economist teaching in New York City. This page is a continuation of his first page, Ancient Economies which dealt with a general overview of the economies of the cultures from the Mesopotamians to the Mycenaean Greeks. This page is much more in depth than the first and takes a very philosophical and scholarly look at economies in myths of these ancient times. The page has numerous references to the Bible and other writing of the time and he analyzes the use of money or the structure of an economy in that piece. The site contains no pictures or links and is well organized text throughout. Silver also gives an extensive bibliography at the end of the page to back up his many listed sources. Ancient Economies is definitely a better place to begin research, but this page will do well for anyone looking to extend that research even further.
