Today in class we took notes on the Fertile crescent again and how their civilization functioned. Jordan, Syria, Israel and Iraq are the countries there today where the Fertile Crescent was. They developed the earliest form of writing called cuneiform. The people of Mesopotamia had religious views favoring pantheons. Women started to decline with duties and jobs simply because they were the only one who can feed the babies at least while their very young. Ziggurat's are the Sumerian temples built on top of a mountain of earth so they can praise all of their gods. The population increased drastically so Kings started to emerge and made laws and consequences.
