There are 5 traits of civilization

The first is Advanced cities

Advanced cities were used as places to store surplus grain

When floods happened, rivers over flowed and the water left silt behind making better crops which could support a bigger population.

Such as Nippur, Ur, and Kish.

The second trait is Specialized workers

Specialized workers were artisans, farmers, priests, and kings which did a special role in Mesopotamia. Farmers grew crops, artisans made pottery for trade, priests told Sumerians how to act to please the gods, the king first protected the city from invaders then ruled over Sumer.

Complex institutions

Complex institutions were organizations that basically helped society. Schools, temples, and the army help Sumer. Schools educated Sumerians, a temple is a place of praying to please the gods for good fortune, and armies protected Sumer.

Advanced Technology

Advanced technology were inventions by Sumerians. One of the things that Sumer invented was the wheel. The wheel helped transport goods from one place to another. There was also the potters wheel. The potters wheel made making pottery more efficient. Also Sumerians invented bronze. Bronze was a mixture between copper and tin. Bronze was stronger than copper itself so that meant that bronze tools staye sharper and lasted longer.
