Speech on rivers were the life blood in ancient times |
|
Answer» All civilizations depend on available water, and, of course, RIVERS are a fine source. Rivers also provided ancient societies with access to trade -- not only of PRODUCTS, but ideas, including language, writing, and technology. River-based irrigation permitted communities to specialize and develop, even in areas lacking adequate rainfall. For those cultures that depended on them, rivers were the lifeblood. |
