Homework 11/2/17 Due 11/3/17
Ancient Mesopotamian Inventions
Without inventions, humans would never have advanced from the days of the cave men. The cave men, themselves, invented simple tools. Inventions also bring problems, as well as progress. With each benefit that a new invention brings, it is arguable that it also has some negative effect on some people and their environment.
Pick three Mesopotamian inventions and explain in at least one paragraph, in class comments, on how these inventions helped ancient Mesopotamian. Also include how modern civilizations use these inventions today.
