Product Description
People first began settling the area we know today as Iraq, norther Syria, and southwestern Iran between 8,000 and 9,000 years ago. Their farming communities grew bigger and more complex. They built towns and cities. They developed technologies and made important inventions that we still use today (The word "technology" comes from the Greek words techne, meaning "art" or "craft", and logos, meaning "word" or "study". It has come to mean the use of science and engineering to perform practical tasks.)
