Mesopotamia: Geography and Topography

Class these questions are going to be the focus over the next few class periods. Give your answers here but then also be prepared to discuss those answers in class.

How would you describe in geographical (i.e. mountains, rivers, etc.) terms what Mesopotamian landscape was like?

What do you think were methods of transportation in Mesopotamia?

What are some differences in topography of ancient Mesopotamia and modern day Iraq?
