The characteristic of a civilization that had the most influence on the Mesopotamia society is Food Supply. In ancient Mesopotamia they had a good stable food supply which helped them thrive because no one can survive without food and as we can see in birds eye view pictures of Mesopotamia they had really good crops which helped them thrive. They also mainly ate breads, fruits, pulses and vegetables, which can all easily be grown or made by things that they can/could grow.

This shows that in the fertile crescent it did not even rain that much but they did have seasonal rains which definitely helped as it says that these rains where necessary for the plants to grow.

Someone might say that a stable food supply is the least important for a civilization because they might think that another characteristic is more important. In the Stable food supply article in they talk about technological advancements which someone could call technology they also say stuff like “ They also began to preserve and store extra food for times when the crops didn’t grow as well, ensuring that the community always had enough to eat” this shows that sometimes their food would fail and that they would have less food and prob fail.
