Excerpt
When human being began to speak , the word became the echo of the soul and of the mind . Wonderful stories enriched the daily life . The written speach , then the book opened a new way to infinity . Today thousands of hearts and thousands of minds live near the shelves with books .
6000 years ago the tales orally plied . The first written texts appeared in Egypt and in Mesopotamia 4000 years ago . They were ample stories and vast poems which narrated about the creation of the world and of the people , the life of the gods and the brave feats of the heros .
The history of ancient Mesopotamia begins with the emergence of urban societies during the Ubaid period (ca. 5300 BC). The history of
the Ancient Near East is taken to end with either the arrival of the
Achaemenid Empire in the 6th century BC, or with the Islamic
conquest of Mesopotamia and the establishment of the Caliphate, from which point the region came to be known as Iraq.
