The Sumerian civilization, which emerged around 4500 BCE in Mesopotamia (modern-day Iraq), is one of the earliest known civilizations in human history. They developed in the region between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, known as the cradle of civilization. The Sumerians are credited with creating one of the first writing systems, cuneiform, which they used to record laws, trade transactions, and stories like the Epic of Gilgamesh. They built city-states such as Ur, Uruk, and Eridu, and made significant advancements in architecture, mathematics, and astronomy. Their society was organized around a theocratic structure with powerful city-temples and priest-kings.
