Description

The rise of civilization is one of the most remarkable and important moments in human history. 


However, it didn’t happen one time in one place. It occurred multiple times in multiple locations.  


Historians and archaeologists have identified six distinct civilizations that developed independently of one another, all of which have, in one way or another, contributed to the civilization we live in today. 


Learn more about the six cradles of civilization, what they were, and how they developed on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
