In my opinion food supply had the best influence on the Mesopotamia society. Food supply was very important for Mesopotamian people because they can use techniques by farming to store their food In case of bad weather or droughts. Their land was very important because it had Fertile soil that contained rich nutrients.

Another piece of evidence from the article, Mesopotamian Food Supply,”Farming in Mesopotamia began because of the land and climate between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. The geography of this area was unique, and between the two rivers, many types of vegetation naturally grew.”

One can see from this is that Mesopotamia people would provide resources to transport their needs and the rivers would also help for transportation. Rivers helped Mesopotamia people because when there are floods the river is a stable water supply.

This shows that the climate between the rivers will help the soils so the mesopotamians can have vegetation that can help grow their crops and what they're growing. Also the rivers help the crops or grain so when there is a flood the people can have a water supply to grow their crops.
