Daily life of Sumerians

My topic is women. Women had some rights
like they can go to the market by them self and
buy goods and they could sell goods. Women
could start their own business and run jobs in
town of city. They would make houses with sundried brick. The rich people would live in large
homes poor people would live in small homes.
Daily life of Sumerians
 Daily life of Sumerians are similar to our
lives today because women today have
rights like they had right.

Ziggurats
Ziggurats
Ziggurats where made out of
mud brick it was seven
stories high on top was a
shrine it had buildings
around it. It was center of
city.
They believed that gods
controlled there
agriculture. the two kings
where Enlil & Ea. If they
had storms & wind & rain
and they would think the
gods where angry at them
or if they had no water or
wisdom they would think
the gods where mad at
them
Ziggurats

time ago we had ziggurats to go and pray
like a church we have today another is
that the ziggurat was in the center of the
city like today we have churches in
