   • 8. The Sumerians - Fall of the First ...  

In the dusts of Iraq, the ruins of the world's first civilization lie buried.

This episode, we travel into the extremely distant past to look at the Sumerians. These ancient people invented writing and mathematics, and built some of the largest cities that the world had ever seen. Find out about the mystery of their origins, and learn how they rose from humble beginnings to form the foundation of all our modern societies. With myths, proverbs and even some recreated Sumerian music, travel back to where it all began, and find out how humanity's first civilization fell.

Like some already said, this is the "definitive" Sumerian podcast, the one to recommend if you can choose only one.

Even though english is not my native language i still can understand about 95% of your podcasts. These podcasts are not only interesting, but also easy to listen and understand.

I'm a connoiseur of history podcasts and yours is one of my favorite. You're very thorough and, while other podcasts do a great job of helping me understand what happened in the past, yours does a great job of taking me inside the past as if I'd been there. Great work. Thanks

Absolutely the best history of the Sumerians I have heard - and it's because the narrative is so well done and characters are developed and it is all so well paced. Everything from presentation to the occasional aside shows a loving care and great storytelling. Thanks again!

In awe, i am, sunken on my knees, deeply struck, crying while tears roll uppon my cheekes.. That is the most amazing Podcast on this topic i can recall. Thank you endlessly for preserving our history sparked in the cradles of Men, the first of Gardens.

I just discovered this series two days ago and I am really loving its detail and care. I am always struggling to find resources about civilizations other than the overly touted Grecco-romans of Europe. Even your first on Britannia was refreshing. Keep it up!
