The Sumerians

A legendary civilization vanished under the Fertile Crescent and escaped a fate worse than death until Sumerologists questioned widely accepted truths. The Sumerians reemerged onto the extraordinary timeline of human history. Their tales of kings and gods, including the Epic of Gilgamesh, and their fearless trade in distant lands, during the remarkable Bronze Age, centered in the world’s first city-states that chronicled ancient rivalries and their enduring impact.

From this audiobook you will learn about:

  • How we know what we know about Sumerians
  • The Bronze Age - Sumer and its contemporaries
  • How did the Sumerians become civilized
  • How long were they around
  • Primer of impact of Sumerian ancient civilization on our world
  • What did they look like
  • What shaped their worldview
  • And much more

Our journey relies on excavated and historical evidence to explore their productive fascinations with order and man’s place in the universe. Their application of impressive knowledge helps us unfold their mysterious civilization.

Fascinating to learn how much of today’s life came to us from such a long time ago. Very interesting and informative lecture. Lecturer was clear in his presentation and not at all boring. It’s important to know and learn from Sumerian history as it puts today’s human behavior into a new perspective. Highly informative and recommended

Ancient Human civilization not much different than today’s civilization.

Very superficial book. It looks like the author did very little research and only covered somebody’s else discoveries. The book is not worth one 1 credit at all. The Sumerian topic can be explored in much more depth as it is a fascinating field to cover. The requirements to leave a long summary is really stupid and does not make sense. Should be removed

Very superficial book

The first two chapters (all I could manage) read like a clumsy Wikipedia entry. I felt sorry for the narrator trying to manage several verb tenses in one paragraph and run-on sentences. Badly needs to be copyedited.

The writing is so poor I could not listen.
