Uruk
The world's first ginormous city.
Geographical Location
Uruk was built on the grounds of what is now known as Iraq. Greeks called this place Mesopotamia also known as the land between the rivers since it was between two rivers. The name of the two rivers were the following: Euphrates and Tigris.
Everyday Life
As time passed by individuals learned to farm they eventually stopped wearing attire made from animal skin. They traded the animal skin clothing for fashionable clothing made from animals and plants as well. As ironic as this might sound in Mesopotamia even during hot weather they'd wear clothing made from sheep wool.
Ruins of Uruk
The peak this civilization lasted from 3600 B.C.E to 2600 B.C.E. Between this time people form Uruk created new diverse concepts which have defined cities ever since.
Cuneiform"Scientific Advancement"/Food and Domesticated Animals
Much is known about Uruk since many archeological digs have been found. Inclusively the earliest writing in the world came from Uruk. This writing is and was called "cuneiform". This writing was named after a wedge-shaped reed which writers pressed into wet clay.
The main crop Uruk had in abundance was grain.
Some of the animals they had were the following: fish, fowl, and marshes animals such as rabbits, frogs, and deer. By this point in their life Uruk had all ready invented beer; they had a goddess of beer named Ninkasi.
Agriculture and Geographical Challanges
Uruk had it pros and cons as to where the location was. A benefit they had due to their location would be that they had water and food since they had two rivers that crossed Uruk. However, there was frequent flooding. During the summer Uruk had a major challenge since there was little to no rain and the sun baked the ground making it impossible to grow crops until later when the irrigation system was developed.
