In your own words, describe how Mesopotamia set precedents that affected civilization after it. Focus on at least two specific contribution of the Mesopotamians.

Mesopotamia made significant contributions to civilization, including cuneiform writing, agriculture and cattle, equal rights, city growth, and the invention of the wheel. As you requested, I'll start by outlining two of these contributions. The Sumerians, an ancient Mesopotamian people, were the first to establish the cuneiform writing system. Cuneiform was used to write a variety of languages and literary works on clay tablets. Because it was so powerful at the time, cuneiform writing did indeed set precedents. The people of Mesopotamia are also credited with the invention of agriculture since they practiced animal domestication. Cattle ranches were present. As a result, we might conclude that Mesopotamia produced significant contributions to civilization, including cuneiform writing and agriculture.
