Believe us, she rocks! Plus, our historians are human fact-checkers, so you can trust every word!Let’s clear things up: Sumerians, Akkadians, Assyrians, Babylonians? Not the same crew! While they shared cultural elements in ancient Mesopotamia, it would be incorrect to say that the Sumerians, Akkadians, Assyrians, and Babylonians were the same people. They had distinct languages, political systems, and historical identities, even though they shared many cultural elements such as religion, law, and writing traditions over time. Understanding these nuances is crucial when studying the history of Mesopotamia.This book is all about the facts, folks! We delve into the fascinating civilizations and their religions - yes, including Christianity. No creationism here, though we do chat about our early human pals.

At first glance, you might think this is a silly question. History is the study of the past: who did what, when, and where it happened. That’s all true! But history is also so much more. History is a story, like a pick-your-own-adventure story. It’s a lens you look through to understand where you are now, how you got here, and where you might be going in the future. As Pearl S. Buck once said, 'If you want to understand today, you have to search yesterday.' A thousand years from now, historians will be reading e-books and Tweets and watching YouTube and TikTok to learn about what life must have been like in the early 2000s! The scope of this book focuses on Mesopotamia and the Mediterranean regions due to the volume of information covered. However, we explore other ancient civilizations around the world in other books.
