The Sumerian Civilization

Author: Khazaal Al-Majidi

The civilization of Sumer did not descend from the heavens, nor did it migrate from anywhere on Earth to settle in southern Iraq. Instead, it is a product of the Mesopotamian civilizations of prehistoric times, gradually developing its consciousness and maturity. Patiently and calmly, it wove the beginnings of civilizational patterns in all fields to form the first human civilization, with which human history began its long course. It is the civilization of beginnings, origins, and first explorations, and the seed of the initial human spirit. This comprehensive and extensive book delves into all aspects of this civilization, focusing on its profound human dimension and chronicling its rare uniqueness. The nine chapters of the book are rich with the most precise details and information about the history and facets of this civilization in politics, society, economy, religion, culture, literature, and Sumerian sciences and arts. It is an indispensable guide in this field, and the only book that covers the Sumerian civilization with such a broad scope.
