 There are many thoughts on the origins of civilization. One of the major factors involved was 
the increase in population. The development of techniques, primarily irrigation and flood control, 
which permitted agriculture in special areas such as the flood plain of the Tigris and Euphrates 
rivers, made possible the support of large population. Once populations reach a certain number, 
the older pattern of social organization breaks down and new ones develop. Specifically the older 
system, whereby each individual participated in food production and maintained a similar standard 
of living, and whereby kinship served as the basic method of social organization, was replaced by 
the occupational division of labor, political and religious hierarchies, public works such as road 
and public building construction, class systems, codes of law, markets, new forms of warfare, and 
urban centres. Allied with these important sociological traits are material traits, such as 
monumental architecture and the development of science and, in many cases, metallurgy and 
writing systems. 
 The earliest civilization, Sumer, developed in the Middle East. This was the Bronze Age 
of the Old World, during which people first developed the art of metallurgy, civilization also arose 
in other parts of the Old World first in Egypt, China, and India, and later in Europe and Africa. At 
this time, civilization also developed independently in the New World, in the Mexican area and in 
Peru and its neighboring areas. 
 In the Old World the Bronze Age was followed by the Iron Age, which saw the rise and fall 
of great empires and the shift of power from the Middle East to Greece and Rome and then to 
Western Europe. In the 1700s the Industrial Age began, leading directly to the modem civilization 
of today.
