How Did Mesopotamia Contribute To World's Culture

Mesopotamia is a region known to be very fertile found in between two rivers, river Tigris, and river Euphrates. Mesopotamia has significantly contributed to the world’s culture because most things were invented in this place. The invention of tools like the wheel, which used rollers, allowed carrying heavy loads. The rollers and wheels eventually evolved to become the wheels we currently use in bicycles, cars and even in airplanes. People in Mesopotamia were also hunters and gatherers (The Phoenix Learning Group Inc.). They used to bury their dead, conduct funeral rituals and these practices are still done today. The aspect of irrigation, which involved digging trenches in allowing water to flow into crops such as cereals, was also invented
