The characteristic of a civilization that had the most influence on the Mesopotamian society is food supply. Food Supply impacted the Mesopotamian society because by developing planting crops it allowed new space for other inventions. Another way food supply impacted Mesopotamian society was because it was a way people could grow crops and provide for their families and themselves.

According to Mesopotamian Food Supply, “As more food became available throughout the year, the population in Mesopotamia began to grow. People no longer had to move with the seasons in search of food, so they could build permanent homes and structures”

This evidence suggests that as Mesopotamia started growing more and more crops that it started to grow and people didn’t have to rely on two seasons for growing crops and having food. It also says that the Stable food supply helped build shelter for people.

Evidence 3

One example from the stable food supply article that supports the idea that food supply is the most influential characteristic on Mesopotamian Society is “Overall, most Mesopotamian's benefited from the stable food supply, ate a variety of foods, and were in good nutritional health.”

The Stable Food Supply text also states, “This surplus, or extra food, was important because it allowed the population to grow, and it also provided goods that could be traded with neighboring communities.”

This evidence is important because it mentions that Mesopotamias food supply is thriving. It also states that because of the stable food supply growing and flourishing that it is allowing the population to grow and provided trading goods.

This evidence is important when thinking about why stable food supply had the most impact on Mesopotamian society because it tells the reader that the stable food supply is what their society most benefited from. It also gives detail about how it kept the people healthy.

Push Evidence

The article Elements of a Civilization: Government stated, “The government that developed in the south was also like a monarchy, particularly under King Hammurabi of Babylon. He created a centralized government, tax system, and most famously, the Code of Hammurabi”

Push Reasoning

This evidence explains that the government Mesopotamia had successful laws, good tax systems, and a centralized government. The importance of this is that without the government the Mesopotamian society would fall apart.

However, some may argue that government has the most impact on the Mesopotamian society. They might argue this due to the government being why Mesopotamia was a successful civilization
