Unit Reflection

Through the domestication of plants and animals we got new things, and we always had food. Animals such as dogs could help us hunt other animals for food. We didn't constantly have to move and settle in different places. The transition from hunter-gatherers to early civilizations was very important. We started producing surplus and we started to live in bigger settlements that didn't migrate. Governments formed and there were social classes and a division of labor. Early beliefs and religion were also very important. They gave people a chance to believe in something. If someone told me that learning about Sumerians wasn't important, they were one of the first civilizations, lot's of the things we have today we owe to Sumerians who invented them. We couldn't do lot's of the thing's we do today without the Sumerians they were the first civilization with kingship and that's how government started.
