Fadesays...Dead deader deaderest
8727says...this is surely wrong, the egyptians and peruvians had civilized communities with mills and all that - well before this. wikipedia doesn't seem to acknowledge it though!?... i guess the term civilization has a precise meaning and demands hard evidence rather than obvious hints.
bleedingsnowmansays...No, the fertile crescent was first.
johnald128says...i just read up on Peru and that was 5000 years ago (they had pyramids and some kind of primitive city.
There are some indications that there were possibly Pre-Ancient Egyptian Kingdoms. For instance from ice weathering on the Sphinx and hieroglyphic records of past leaders. Also, pottery that there's no evidence that the ancient egyptians we know of could have possibly made.
regardless of this, ancient history records are bound to be amended with new evidence.
8727says...there's so much religious babble in this it's difficult to tell which things actually have any real evidence. i accept this is where there's the first evidence of civilisation though. i did always think ancient egypt was, i guess because of the more obvious evidence.
8727says...it's debatable - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cradle_of_civilization
8727says...also, alternative theories on who built the great pyramid here -

Almanildosays...That was some clever editing, with the juxtaposition of the title "Cradle of civilization" with rocket artillery.
