Common components of cities
|
|
| |
Initially, it may appear improbable that all human societies might be considered common elements transmitted from the first civilisations to our present day civilisations. It defies our belief of evolution of knowledge and sophistication to think of our societies and civilisation as anything but the most advanced that has ever lived on the planet Earth. |

However, the discovery of the more than one million cuniform clay tablets in the ruins of the 6,000 year old great library of Nippur testifies to their civilisation also having to deal with same "key news" of the day. Some tablets talk of the problems of corruption in the legal process and the public service. Others talk of problems within education and crime. Others talk of the problems and issues surrounding greedy merchants. |
