History Begins in Sumer

To which civilization did the first legal system belong? Which civilization implemented the first tax reduction? What about the first proverb, the first love song, the first sayings and idioms? The answer to all these questions will undoubtedly be the Sumerians, who started written history by transferring their so-called cuneiform script to clay tablets. Seeing that many concepts in the Bible have their origins in Sumerians will raise questions in our minds. Samuel Noah Kramer, one of the leading Sumerologists, compiled 39 areas where the Sumerians contributed to human history in this book, which was created as a result of years of research and reading thousands of tablets. From education to family, from agriculture to justice, from morality to philosophy, from literature to politics, "History Begins in Sumer."
