This is a very interesting subject to learn about Mesopotamia, the land of Fertile Crescent. I have chose the three settlers that came in to Mesopotamia and had brought different things to the people. Many invaders that came in to Mesopotamia but I only selected three of those invaders that made a great deal of influencing the society, from Summerians to Assyrian. The Summerians had taught the people to read and write in a cuneiform writing. Summerians didn't have paper to write so they used clay tablet. The Assyrian painted and decorated the walled cities to proclaim their power and wealth. The major contributions of Mesopotamia to our society were; "the structured of religion, the structuring of codes and laws for society, the development of a written alphabet, and the recording of historical data." Without all this things, what is going to happen to us if we didn't know all this stuff from the early civilizations?
