Chapter 2 Blog Post - The Difference between First Civilizations

How did various First Civilizations differ from one another? 

The First Civilizations were marital around the time of 3500 B.C.E to around the time of 3000 B.C.E. With that in mind the various First Civilizations differed from one another. One way that these Civilizations differed from one another is that women were treated differently. In Mesopotamia society, men typically dominated the opposite sex. Women also from the Mesopotamia era who were married had to wear a vail covering there face. On the other hand if a female was a prostitute or a slave she wasn't required to do so. Now moving on to the Egyptian society. Women were allowed to make crucial decisions for themselves as well as others. More so than Mesopotamia women. A key factor is that all Egyptian women were allowed to put a signature on there divorce and marriage papers. Whereas women from Mesopotamia couldn't. They were also not required to were veils if they were married. The Mesopotamia women had a strict rule where it was not an exception.
