Blog #3: Chapter 2 (First Civilizations) The introduction to new civilizations such as the Sumerian, Egyptian, Olmec, Nubia and many more. From the beginning of 3500 by 500 B.C.E may new civilizations took part in which they originated from the agricultural revolutions. As well as urban revolutions took part in architectural development. As civilizations started to build the form of social status start to become a question in equality. Ways that the rich are higher in class and the poor are lower classmen. The wealthy had no worries just power and money as in the poor they participated in physical labor and were almost seen as slaves. Gender also started to take a role in civilizations in which just civil cities started to practice the idea of patriarchy. That explains that women must operate under the power of their husbands. Women started to be seen as less powerful. For example, goddesses were being replaced or viewed as gods. Like any form of civilizations, the forms start to rise into a form of government that began with the royal crowning over kings. As governments forms learning and development became a new way to communicate and keep track of important information. I have learned in my freshmen seminar that the Sumerian used such writing for accounting in trade and these writing were performed on clay. Such trading also helped spread language and beliefs through rivers but also created conflict with other travelers. The fascinating area that the development of a society or civilization also develops a way of government and functions.
