They write on clay tablets that were made by clay (obviously) and left in its place to be baked in the sun.  People who knew how to write were called scribes.

Record Keeping: Depending on the constellations they keep track of time and see what season, month, and day it is.  The scribes also write about important events at the king's palace, like a banquet.
They're also were improving on technology like the potters wheel.

There're also believed in different kinds of gods.  The god of the sun, the god of the moon, the god of salt water, the god of fresh water, the god of wind, and the god of the sky (I think).

They gave food to their gods to give thanks to them.  They spent most of their time praying to their gods or even make a praying statue so that they can do their work.

Domestication: nobody needed to hunt anymore.  They did farming and once they went to Mesopotamia, they didn't even need to farm because they were between rivers called Tigris and Euphrates.
So people did other specialized jobs like making jewlery and stuff like that.

Record Keeping: Calendar, pictographs, clay tablets
Specialized Workers: Preist, merchants,  fishermen
Improved Technology: Plow, wheel, potters wheel

# data[].attributes.body
They didn't have to hunt for animals anymore because they had plants and crops to grow.

all the water from  the  mountain  goes into the valley and leads  to the rivers .thats how they grow their crops .

they learned how to build levees.they used this to controll the water .

They learned how to write in Cuneiform to write words out on wet clay.

If they didn't have the wheel they would still have to carry things around.

Some Slaves were captured in War and some became slaves because they had money.

they belived in earth ,wind, salt water ,sun ,fresh water ,skys moon .

there was a famous city called Nipper  Mesopotamia means the land between two rivers
2. specialized workers
They discovered that food grows better were they were so they stayed there to farm. they also first farmed than they went to fish

3. Improved technology
Sumerians made a invention to help with crops called a plow . the Sumerians made the ox pull the plow  they also invented a thing to block the flooding from killing the crops called levees

# data[].attributes.body
Cities : There is a city called Nippor

Improved Technology: The best thing they made was the wheel they also made the plow for farming and Metal worker the could make bricks out of mud.

Specialized workers: They would farm but before that they would hunt some people would be a potter or a metal worker.Priest they care for the gods and make sure they are happy. There are other jobs to like Jewlers Fisherman Toolmaking and Taders.

# data[].attributes.body
Cities : There was a famous city called Nippur and there was the city of the Sumerians. Each city had there own god.

Specialized workers : The first thing they did was farm, then when they started hunting there were other jobs like gathering berries, seeds, or greens and they would domesticate animals to gather food from them.

Improved technology- They invented Levees which are big piles of earth piled between water and the fields.A Sumerian invention was the plow and it was a digging tool that was used to plant seeds.They decided that the ox will pull it also calendars were created by the smartest people and those people created calendars by looking at the stars. The best invention that they created is the wheel and that´s because they used it bring objects back to there cities or villages

1. Cities:
There was a city called Nippur,UR, Uruk, TIGRIS, Sippar Mari, and Eupitrates.

2. Specialized workers:

-traders

3.Improved technology:
They invented the greatest invention of all time,the wheel. They also invented the plow for crops. They also learned how to weave for clothing and writing too.

# data[].attributes.body
Improvement in tech
The Sumerians made the most important invention that is still used today
Specialized jobs
the sumerians had all kinds of jobs other than farmers. They had scribes, merchants etc.
complex institutions
all Sumerian city states had religion and they were all a tribute to a certain god and in the middle of each city there was a temple and they had different groups the richest eople lived in the two story houses nearest to the temple.

# data[].attributes.body
-cities: Nippur. People started to settle down in certain areas.
-improved technology: The Sumerians started using goats and sheep as well as harvesting crops for farming. They created leves and irrigation canals. They invented writing and the wheel. They started making bricks using mud.
-specialized workers: They had jobs like craftsman as well as scribes and priests. The priests were better off than others.

# data[].attributes.body
City: The city of Nippur.
Specialized Workers: Most people had to work by farming the land. But Sumerians got really good at growing food, so some quit farming. People settled near each other in villages, so some people would farm the food, and the village would share it. Villages soon turned into city states. In the city state of Nippur, there were priests, merchants, shop keepers, craftsmen, scribes, farmers, fisherman and slaves. Slaves were captured and some were in debt. They would work for three years, then they would be set free. Slaves would work in the fields and in households, preforming chores around the house.
Improved Technology: The people built levees which controlled the water and stopped the river from flooding the fields. Levees were big piles of earth that were too tall for the river to get over. Levees were used to prevent flooding of the fields. Another useful invention was the plow. The plow was invented by Sumerians and it was used to plant crops. Oxen would pull the plow across the fields. They also invented calendars, which helped measure time and predict when floods will happen. The calendar was based off of the stars and moon. Each month was represented by a constellation in the sky. These constellations were called the zodiac. Priests would watch the zodiac to tell what month it was. This was also a way to know when floods were coming. One of the best inventions was the wheel. The wheel is very helpful in the transportation of goods and people. It is very versatile, for example, the potter's wheel. Sumerians created a form of writing. This was called cuneiform. Writing was mainly used of record keeping.
Record Keeping: The invention of writing started record keeping. They would record their laws on clay tablets to make them permanent. They would record information on clay tablets using a stylus, so they don't have to remember everything. Scribes were specialized workers who would record information, such as traditions, customs, laws, important events and transactions.

# data[].attributes.body
1) Improved technology : They were the ones to event the wheel
2) Record keeping : They used to just paint on walls but now they write on clay tablets there writing form is cuneiform
3) Specialized workers : They created levees which was a way to prevent floods and they made gates so when the plants need water they just give it to them

# data[].attributes.body
1)Cities
There were very large population
Early cities were Ur,Nipper, and sumer
Well people would live in 2 story house next to the temple and other people would live in 1 story houses
2) Record keeping
They would write on clay tablets so they could remember something important
To write you make a stylus and get get clay and press down to start writing
You can keep records on clay tablets so it goes down by culture
3) Improved Technology
The wheel help by not dragging everything with them and be able to take more stuff with them
They build a wall were the river is so it wouldn't flood and when the plants need water they would let the wall opens.
They also made a plow to help farmers plant there crops

# data[].attributes.body
1) Record Keeping
-To write they took a piece of reed and cut a stylus from it,  and you press the point into the wet clay and you can write. This is called Cuneiform.
2) Specialized Workers
- They make bricks by gathering mud (there´s a lot of mud where they live!) They gather the mud and mold it together and let it  sit in the sun to dry. They use these bricks to make all of their buildings.
3) Improved Technology
- They created levees to control the river so the Sumerian people/farmers would know when the floods would come so their crops and plants would not die.

# data[].attributes.body
Record Keeping:  Civilizations used journals and calendars. Some early civilizations used clay tablets and a reed styles. They wrote down laws and traditions.

Cities: Some early cities are Ur, Nippur, and Sumer. People who live right next  to a temple tend to be priests that serve the king with 2 story houses. People who live farther away live in one story houses, and farmers live the furthest away.

Specialized Workers: Some jobs besides farming are priests, shopkeepers, scribe, potter, fisherman, trader, musician, and king. Another job could be making all the sun dried bricks for the cities buildings.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Record Keeping: People had to keep journals. There are also Scribes keeping track of important things like bushiness transaction and laws.

Record Keeping: People would make calendars based on the moon and stars. They would write on a clay tablet with a stylus. The sumor were the first to write down their laws.
Specialized Workers: There were jobs like fisherman, priest,n merchants, shopkeepers, craftspeople, scribe, and potters. Priests are the ones who keep track of the calendar they also make sure the gods get their offerings and that people get all the food they need.

Improved Technology:
They invented the levees which are big piles of earth between the fields and river they are so tall that they prevent the fields from flooding. They also invented other things like a calendar, the plow, writing cuneiform, and they also made the wheel.

Cities- Mari, Sippar, Uruk, Ur and Nippur. Each city/state had a king and worshiped a certain god.

Specialized Workers- Instead of everyone farming they had a certain people  do that and other people make mud bricks, Pottery and fish. One of the most important jobs were to be Scribs.
A Scrib is a person that knows how to read and write
Improved Technology- Instead of them writing on cave walls with fruits or some type of rock they now use clay tablets and a wood stylist.

-They made plows that turned the land, attached to an animal
-They made gates around the rivers, so that when the hot, dry season came, they could use river water to help crops grow
-They invented the wheel, allowing them to go places faster and more efficiently
Record Keeping:
-They used clay tablets to etch things into
-Sumerian scribes and other people made calendars that used the moon and stars to calculate time, and when the floods come
-Used a stylus to write on the clay tablets
-They wrote laws to control the population and avoid anarchy
