Great work! As a teacher looking for something appropriate for my students to watch and learn from, I can honestly say that your video is one of the best and clearest I have seen. Thank you so much!
To add to the discussion, for non-Greek speaking readers, Mesopotamia is the Greek for "between -meso- and rivers -potamia". Euphrates in Greek is called the river easily blocked, and its waters can be diverted for irrigation, which is the case of Euphrates. Tigris on the other hand, is the Greek for tiger, untamable, not easy to use for irrigation.
ευχαριστώ πάρα πολύ για την πληροφορία..η Ελλάδα είναι μια χώρα με μεγάλη ιστορία.. by the way the word Mesopotamia as far as i am aware is based on an old persian word Miyanrudan( the fertile crescent) Tigris is an old Persian word Tigrā (swift river) Euphrates is likely an old persian Ufratu ( good to cross) but in Arabic language the Euphrates is the sweet water river and Tigris is the river that covers the lands for it was the one with frequent flooding and in Aramic Mesopotamia is ( Beth Nahrain) meaning land between the two rivers.
i am learning about Mesopotamia this year, and this video was so helpful. I really found it simple and this is a very well worded video. I am doing a lot better in school. Thanks, History with Cy!!
Agriculture was a very big thing but I've always found it interesting that humans were better fed for much of our hunter gatherer history than for nearly all of our history after agriculture until very recently. The size and shape of the bones found appear to prove that we has a better nutritional diet than after we learned to farm...
Got to thank you for the ease of listening and explanation of the videos on your channel ,watched alot of stuff on Sumerians and so on and this one ranks as one of the best dude...subbed
U my friend are a good person. As an indigenous syrian (suryoyo, syriani) almost crying because the land between two rivers was and still invaded and divided all the time. And for every invasion our culture and people get erased and attacked and many of us know very little about our culture. So getting this information means the world to us. when you do what you are doing, know that it is a truly honorable act. Thank you a 100 times!
Thank you for this video. I played it during my History Class about Mesopotamian Civilization. My students listened and watched attentively. It aids their learning aside from reading the book.
Thanks so much and honored! This was one of the first videos I ever made so glad it's still useful after so long. Will have a lot more on the way, stay tuned and thanks for watching!
Just discovered your channel and I like any & all history (especially ancient!) UA-camrs who know what they're talking about. So in short, I subbed & will definitely keep watching.
It's totally mind blowing how it occurred to someone one day many years ago how to cultivate that kernel of wheat that grew naturally there ( we assume ) and reproduce it to go beyond the rivers. Food control is what made civilizations. But that moment when that first person had the idea to cultivate it. It would be so interesting to be there and know the exact time...
Thank you! Haha this was one of my first videos and I sometimes cringe when I see it now... the sound...the visuals... I can make these a bit better now. I'll probably redo this one eventually with more info. As always, thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate it!

Awesome video. Very informative and well-researched. Could you please do a video on Tiglath Pilesar? He is undoubtedly one of the most fascinating and influential figures in Mesopotamian history imo. Certainly one of if not THE greatest Assyrian monarch ever.
Good job. But, also, remember that 10 000 years ago, agriculture was very inefficient and people that were ploughing the fields were working long days doing shitty job and obtaining shitty quality of food. During fertile years, they would produce a lot of this shitty food and multiple to epic proportions. As a result they would then expand and overwhelm hunter-gatherers, whose lives were much better in virtually all regards.
Great information and insight. But i have 2 questions for you 1) Are you Greek? 2) Why couldnt cities form earlier than 5000BC, even though agriculture started taking place at around 10000BC. What took them 5000 years to settle into small cities which then transformed into modern civilizations and empires?
It is incorrect to say that people were gifted with spare time to think after the discovery of agriculture. Hunter-Gatherers actually have far more free time than civilized people and use the time out hunting-gathering for social interaction, as evidenced by the Australian Aboriginal and Indigenous Amazonians. What allowed the idle time that was required for the advancement of civilization was the discovery of the husbandry of humans. People went from exploiting plants and animals to exploiting other people. It was the domestication of humans that allowed aggressive humans to advance their own interests by making others do the hard menial work under duress.

Kind of a wind thought to know that most really early human settlements along the coastlines, (except regions near river deltas,) are actually several dozen meters under water and offshore... Like the proposed Black Sea settlements and their fate are similar examples even though t that's presented as a dramatic flooding event. The slower progression of the global ice cap melt-off over the last 10,000 years have dramatically raised global ocean levels as well. Our economic activities inevitably have tertiary impacts on our environment. Tragically, we are doomed to learn of these detriments after-the-fact, with-which we shame ourselves with our hindsight for our lack of foresight.
I would say that the people of Iraq are the main heirs of the Mesopotamian civilization, although the whole world benefits from their great contributions to society. Thanks.
Hi, thanks for stopping by and great questions. It's actually interesting. So, Akkadian is the language that both of them spoke, but they had different dialects (there was Babylonian Akkadian and Assyrian Akkadian). The Babylonians didn't call themselves Babylonians like we do, but themselves Akkadians, one because of the language but also because the area that Babylon was located in was called Akkad. To the south was Sumer (referred to later on as the Sealand) and the north, Assyria, home of the Assyrians (in Akkadian called "mat-Ashur" meaning "land of the god Ashur"). So, they all spoke versions of the same language, Akkadian, but were part of different geographies and kingdoms. Hope this helps, if something is unclear, please don't hesitate to ask more questions. Thanks, stay safe!
Imagine if Babylon didn't cooperate with the Medes to overthrow Assyria ..... Mesopotamia would've flourished till who knows when.. I like that alternative...

Idk if they were pre flood. Babylon was after the flood. These are post noah people groups. The waters would easily flood and destroy all mud architecture. The world became corrupt not long after noah
I enjoyed the vid, but I think some quiet music related to the theme of the video playing in the background would add a little more appeal. Just what I needed though, good job man 👍🏻
They discovered agriculture recently? I don't know, the earliest cultivation of grains dates to 10,000 years ago, and didn't become a dominant mode of subsistence until around 6,000 years ago, so either 4,000 years ago is considered recent, or ssomething's off with what I've read and heard. And I wouldn't say other societies "failed" to develop grain surpluses, rather other societies had no need for a surplus, having chosen other forms of subsistence. 'Cause, well, farming's hard and laborious
It's surprising that you are not aware of the content of the Sumerian tablets. What you're saying is somewhat correct, but you're way off on something. It's all written in the tablets. Your story doesn't talk about the main important aspect of the history.
So in summary: Summerians -> Akkadians -> Assyrians & Babylonians -> Hittites -> Assyrians -> Neo Babylonians -> Persians.
Well, the Persians and Greeks are mostly excluded
Then Greeks then Roman's then Arabs.
Actually: Sumerians -> Akkadians -> Gutians -> Sumerians again -> Amorite small kingdoms and the hegemony of the sumerian city of Isin -> Isin-Larsa period -> First dynasty of Babylon and old Assyrian kingdom (kingdom of Upper Mesopotamia) -> Sumerian people forming the Sealand state to oppose Babylon -> Hittite sack of Babylon, brief domain of the Sealand dynasty over Babylonia (2nd dynasty of Babylon) -> Kassite Babylon (3rd dynasty) -> Rise of Mitanni->Middle Assryrian kingdom ->Bronze Age Collapse-> Elamite conquest of Babylon -> Isin-Babylon dynasty (4th of Babylon) ->Aramean migrations and small kingdoms, Neo-hittite states, kingdom of Phrygia, Phoenitians and Israel -> 2nd dynasty of the Sealand (5th of babylon) -> Bazi dynasty (6th of Babylon) -> Elamite dynasty (7th of Babylon) -> E dynasty (8th and 9th dynasty of Babylon) ->Chaldean migration into Babylonia -> New Assryian Empire -> Assyrian conquest of Babylon and all Mesopotamia, Elam and Egypt, including tribes such as the medes.

These were the pre flood people of noahs generation.
Yuuuuup.
Idk if they were pre flood. Babylon was after the flood. These are post noah people groups. The waters would easily flood and destroy all mud architecture. The world became corrupt not long after noah
true..:) and there's a deep history about that which is related to Bible. :)

your welcome
I enjoyed the vid, but I think some quiet music related to the theme of the video playing in the background would add a little more appeal. Just what I needed though, good job man 👍🏻

Hi hi 👋
They discovered agriculture recently? I don't know, the earliest cultivation of grains dates to 10,000 years ago, and didn't become a dominant mode of subsistence until around 6,000 years ago, so either 4,000 years ago is considered recent, or ssomething's off with what I've read and heard. And I wouldn't say other societies "failed" to develop grain surpluses, rather other societies had no need for a surplus, having chosen other forms of subsistence. 'Cause, well, farming's hard and laborious
Sumerians>Americans
Did I miss any?
It's surprising that you are not aware of the content of the Sumerian tablets. What you're saying is somewhat correct, but you're way off on something. It's all written in the tablets. Your story doesn't talk about the main important aspect of the history.
Hi. Check the rest of this channel. It's pretty much devoted to this entire region. Thanks.
