Middle East History and Archaeology MIDDLE EAST TOPICS Ancient Art Ancient History Archaeology Endangered Sites ... About the Behistun Inscription, the "Rosetta Stone" of Cuneiform ::: The Behistun Inscription (also Bisutun or Bisistun) is to cuneiform what the Rosetta Stone is to Egyptian hieroglyphs: the document most crucial in the decipherment of a previously lost script. The inscription is approximately 15 metres high by 25 metres wide, and 100 metres up a cliff from an ancient road connecting the capitals of Babylonia and Media (Babylon and Ecbatana). It is extremely inaccessible as the mountainside was removed to make the inscription more visible after its completion. The text itself is a statement by Darius I of Persia, written three times in three different scripts and languages Arabic Alphabet History and Structure ::: The Arabic alphabet is the principal script used for writing the Arabic language. It is the alphabet of the language of the Quran, the holy book of Islam. The alphabet s influence spread with that of Islam and it has been, and still is, used to write other languages without any linguistic roots in Arabic, such as Persian and Urdu. Mesopotamia - a brief introduction ::: Writings from Mesopotamia (Uruk) are the earliest written work in the world, giving Mesopotamia the reputation of being the cradle of civilization. Mesopotamia was settled by, and conquered by, numerous ancient civilizations, including Sumer, Akkad, Babylon and Assyria. Peoples who threatened or invaded these lands include the Hittites, the Elam and the Persian Empire. These civilizations arose from earlier settlements and cultures which were among the first to make use of agriculture.

35. Ancient Civilizations, Ragz-International All of the ancient civilizations probably developed in much the same way, Civilization arose in the Americas much later than in the middle east. http://history-world.org/ancient_civilization.htm

ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS the requirements and patterns to development The Ancient City of Jericho  The term civilization basically means the level of development at which people live together peacefully in communities. Ancient civilization refers specifically to the first settled and stable communities that became the basis for later states, nations, and empires. The study of ancient civilization is concerned with the earliest segments of the much broader subject called ancient history. The span of ancient history began with the invention of writing in about 3100 BC and lasted for more than 35 centuries. Mankind existed long before the written word, but writing made the keeping of a historical record possible. The first ancient societies arose in Mesopotamia and Egypt in the Middle East, in the Indus Valley region of modern Pakistan, in the Huang He (Yellow River) valley of China, on the island of Crete in the Aegean Sea, and in Central America. All of these civilizations had certain features in common. They built cities, invented forms of writing, learned to make pottery and use metals, domesticated animals, and created fairly complex social structures with class systems. Apart from written records and carved inscriptions, the knowledge about ancient peoples is derived from the work of archaeologists. Most of the significant archaeological findings have been made in the past 200 years. The Sumerian culture of Mesopotamia was discovered in the 1890s, and some of the most important archaeological digs in China were made after the late 1970s.
