Ur and Sumeria have been called “the Cradle of Civilization.” The Sumerians made advances in architecture, literature, farming, technology, and the sciences, while still revering their numerous and powerful gods. Battles were fought against hostile neighbors. Expeditions were mounted to extend their trade and frontiers. New forms of government were coming about. Allinji takes a leading role in these endeavors and in the advancement of women.
