このコンテンツについて
Dynasties, city empires, gods, and legends - all of these were first developed in the lush region of Mesopotamia thousands of years ago, but how did one strip of land become home to some of the most impactful empires in history?
Discover a time when mankind was trying to make sense of the world around them but managed to create mighty empires that still maintain an influence on our lives today. Learn about the lives of the rulers, artisans, and warriors who introduced literacy, farming, and sophisticated warfare to the ancient world.
The ancient Mesopotamians also developed a massive pantheon of gods and goddesses who influenced kings and the poor alike. They built incredible temple complexes and ziggurats that contained extensive treasuries and were decorated with breathtaking pieces of art. Their empires changed the course of ancient history, and their capital cities became the centers of the known world.
There was a time when Mesopotamian history was hidden from the world, as its cities languished under tons of desert sand. Modern excavations at these sites have revealed astonishing finds that have given modern historians a glimpse into a forgotten era.
