Cuando los estudiosos estudian la historia del antiguo Cercano Oriente, a menudo se destacan varias guerras que tuvieron consecuencias extremadamente brutales (al menos para los estándares modernos). La eliminación forzada de poblaciones enteras, los asedios que diezmaron ciudades enteras y la destrucción ilícita de propiedades fueron tácticas utilizadas por los diversos pueblos del antiguo Cercano Oriente unos contra otros, pero los asirios fueron los primeros en hacer de la guerra una ciencia.

Quando arqueólogos americanos descobriram uma coleção de tabuletas cuneiformes no Iraque, ao final do século XIX, eles se depararam com uma linguagem e um povo que, naquela época, era pouco conhecido até mesmo pelos estudiosos mais instruídos da antiga Mesopotâmia: os sumérios. As explorações e conquistas de outros povos mesopotâmicos, como os assírios e babilônios, já eram conhecidas por um grande segmento da população através do Antigo Testamento....

Ancient Egypt has mystified and entranced generation after generation. The Egyptians' mastery of architecture, their complex religious ideologies, and their peculiar views on death have given modern-day readers much to ponder. Few, if any, of their remaining relics have produced the awe and spectacular wonder of the Great Pyramids of Giza. These three architectural masterpieces have stood for more than 5,000 years despite looting, exploitation, and the slow erosion of time.

Africa may have given rise to the first human beings, and Egypt probably gave rise to the first great civilizations, which continue to fascinate modern societies across the globe nearly 5,000 years later. From the library and lighthouse of Alexandria to the Great Pyramid at Giza, the ancient Egyptians produced several wonders of the world, revolutionized architecture and construction, created some of the world’s first systems of mathematics and medicine, and established language and art that spread across the known world.

Embora os sumérios continuem recebendo o segundo ou mesmo o terceiro faturamento em comparação aos babilônios e assírios, - talvez porque eles nunca construíram um império tão grandioso quanto os assírios ou nunca estabeleceram uma cidade tão grande e duradoura como a Babilônia - eles foram o povo que forneceu o modelo de civilização no qual todos os posteriores mesopotâmicos basearam-se. Os sumérios são creditados como sendo o primeiro povo a inventar a escrita e construir bibliotecas, cidades e escolas na Mesopotâmia (Ziskind 1972, 34).

Enjoy this travel though Egyptian history. Egypt is of one of the first great civilizations. Around 50,000 BC, hunter-gatherers first settled in the abundant Nile regions. By about 9,500 BC, Egyptians grew plants and domesticated animals. Then, writing developed. The first Pharaoh ruled. Egypt's power rose and fell for thousands of years for different reasons.

De todos los pueblos del antiguo cercano oriente, los fenicios están entre los más reconocidos, pero quizás también entre los menos comprendidos. Los fenicios nunca construyeron un imperio como los egipcios y los asirios; de hecho, los fenicios nunca crearon un estado fenicio único, en cambio existieron como ciudades-estados que eran reinos independientes, dispersos por toda la región del Mediterráneo. 

En el sur de Irak hay un silencio aplastante sobre las dunas. Durante casi 5.000 años, las arenas del desierto iraquí han mantenido los restos de la civilización conocida más antigua: los sumerios. Cuando los arqueólogos estadounidenses descubrieron una colección de tablas cuneiformes en Irak a finales del siglo XIX, se encontraron con un idioma y un pueblo que en aquel momento apenas eran conocidos por los estudiosos especializados en la antigua Mesopotamia.

In the last year, Egypt has undergone a revolution that expelled its authoritarian leader of nearly 30 years, and implemented elections that have pitted the Egyptian military in a power struggle with the Muslim Brotherhood, the long-time Islamic opposition group with ties to Hamas and elements of al-Qaeda. Making everything that much more surreal, the events have played out before well placed television cameras with continuous "real time" coverage of the revolution, and ongoing turmoil, and foreign nations around the world eagerly await or dread the end result.

From what we know of history, Egypt, along with Sumer, were the foundations of civilization. The Fertile Crescent, which stretched from the Nile Valley to the twin rivers in Mesopotamia, gave us our earliest glimpse of organized man. But organized how? For one, both locations gave us writing -- hieroglyphics in Egypt and cuneiform in Sumer. There is still some debate about who was first.
