Life in Sumerian Times.

Sumeria was the first civilization on planet Earth.

Historians consider that  Sumeria-Mesopotamia was established approximately 6,000 BCE, which means that they settle in the middle of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers 8,000 years ago. That region is modern-day Iraq in the Middle East.

Sumerians developed great agriculture techniques, so the daily life of Sumerians was decided to work in the farm fields growing crops in the fertile soil of the region and controlling the permanent flooding of the rivers.

Sumerians were very religious people that founded important city-states such as Uruk, Lagash, Ur, Kish, Nippur, or Eridu. They worshiped their gods who were very vulnerable deities. Sometimes they supported humans, but other times, according to Sumerian clay tablets written in the cuneiform language, the gods punished humans.

That is why Sumerians built impressive large buildings called Ziguratts to honor and worship their gods.
