Take THIEVES notes on the following paragraph below from Freedmanpedia 1.3

From about 5,000 years ago, urban societies developed, laying the foundations for the first civilizations. The term civilization   is normally used to designate large societies with cities and powerful states. While there were many differences between civilizations, they also shared important features. They all produced agricultural surpluses that permitted significant specialization of labor. All civilizations contained cities and generated complex institutions, such as political bureaucracies, armies, and religious hierarchies. They also featured clearly stratified social hierarchies and organized long-distance trading relationships. Economic exchanges intensified within and between civilizations, as well as with nomadic pastoralists. As populations grew, competition for surplus resources, especially food, led to greater social stratification, specialization of labor, increased trade, more complex systems of government and religion, and the development of record keeping. As civilizations expanded, they had to balance their need for more resources with environmental constraints such as the danger of undermining soil fertility. Finally, the accumulation of wealth in settled communities spurred warfare between communities and/or with pastoralists; this violence drove the development of new technologies of war and urban defense.

The Epic of Gilgamesh: https://college.cengage.com/history/west/resources/students/primary/gilgamesh.htm

A Great Flood(c. 2700-2500 B.C.E.) 

Introduction The Epic of Gilgamesh, truly a remarkable mythic saga with many major philosophical and theological implications, also featured a description of a cleansing flood sent by the gods. Given the topography of Babylonia, with its untamed, turbulent rivers and frequent floods, one should not be surprised that the Babylonians would have created a myth based on such violent and destructive natural occurrences. 

(Enlil and EA are gods in this story that brings the flood)

'When Enlil had come, when he saw the boat, he was wroth and swelled with anger at the gods, the host of heaven, "Has any of these mortals escaped? Not one was to have survived the destruction." Then the god of the wells and canals Ninurta opened his mouth and said to the warrior Enlil, "Who is there of the gods that can devise without Ea? It is Ea alone who knows all things." Then Ea opened his mouth and spoke to warrior Enlil, "Wisest of gods, hero Enlil, how could you so senselessly bring down the flood?

Lay upon the sinner his sin,Lay upon the transgressor his transgression,Punish him a little when he breaks loose,Do not drive him too hard or he perishes;Would that a lion had ravaged mankindRather than the flood,Would that a wolf had ravaged mankindRather than the flood,Would that famine had wasted the worldRather than the flood,Would that pestilence had wasted mankindRather than the flood.Speaker Using 2-3 short quotes what you know or can infer about this speaker. 2-3 details (Is this person rich/poor, man/woman, a

This primary source reading and map were taken from- www.nkschools.org/cms/lib02/.../Rig%20Veda.doc

Primary Source Document: The Rig Veda

Read the following excerpt from the Rig Veda and look at the map to answer the questions below.

Note: Indra is the god of war. Kine means cow or cattle.

With all-outstripping chariot-wheel, O Indra, thou far-famed,

hast overthrown the twice ten Kings of men, With sixty thousand nine-and-ninety followers,

who came in arms to fight…

Thou goest on from fight to fight intrepidly,

Destroying castle after castle here with strength.

With Bow let us win kine, with Bow the battle,

with Bow be victors in our hot encounters.

The Bow brings grief and sorrow to the foeman:

armed with the Bow may we subdue all regions.

Close to his ear, as fain to speak, She presses,

holding her well-loved Friend in her embraces.Strained on the Bow, She whispers like a woman –

this Bowstring that preserves us in the combat.
