How Do We Know About Ancient Civilizations? Archaeology-study of civilizations through their artifacts Search for artifacts left behind (cities, buildings, garbage, paintings, bodies, anything left behind) Try to understand what they are and how they were used

How do we know about these? Example: Otzi the Ice Man In 1991, 2 German hikers accidentally discovered the preserved body of a man who lived 5,000 years ago found a tool kit with him that included a six-foot longbow and a deerskin case with 14 arrows, an antler tip for sharpening flint blades, a small flint dagger in a woven sheath, a copper ax, and a medicine bag. If you ever travel to Bolzano, Italy, you can view the ice man in a museum! http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2013/10/131016-otzi- ice-man-mummy-five-facts/ Source: textbook

The First Civilizations: The River Valley Civilizations Learning Goal 2: Analyze how geography affected the development of the River Valley Civilizations and describe the political and technological advances made in the River Valley Civilizations. (TEKS/SE’s 15B,16A,B, 19A,27A)

The earliest civilizations formed in the areas above The earliest civilizations formed in the areas above. Why do you think they developed in these locations?

Why did people settle by rivers? Access to water for irrigation & transportation Seasonal flooding provided fertile soil Some locations had predictable flooding, others were not so lucky…

All around the world, city-states All around the world, city-states* and civilizations developed near fresh water sources. Result: crop surplus! Allowed people to specialize in other areas & trade economies to grow Settled communities evolved & innovated City drawing: Sumer

Egypt (Nile River Valley): pg. 35-41 Indus Valley: pg. 44-49 Step 1: Independently use the textbook to find out all the answers to the questions for your civilization. Mesopotamia: pg. 29-34 Egypt (Nile River Valley): pg. 35-41 Indus Valley: pg. 44-49 Huang He (Yellow) River/China: pg. 50- 55
