Science, Technology, and Warfare of Ancient Mesopotamia

Located between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, ancient Mesopotamia is known as part of the Fertile Crescent, an area which gave birth to civilizations such as Akkad, Sumer, Babylonia, and Assyria. Ancient Mesopotamia set the course for subsequent aspects of human culture and intellectual endeavor as it introduced the world to the wheel, the planting of cereal crops, and the development of cursive script. In this informative volume, author Don Nardo details the scientific, technological, and war-related advancements that occurred throughout ancient Mesopotamia and discusses how these advancements would affect the region for years to come. Readers will learn about Mesopotamian developments in math, astronomy, and measurement, medicine and medical technology, agricultural tools and building methods, and naval and siege technology.
