Known only for brutal stupidity in modern times, the region was once the center of science, learning, and innovation. "The ancient Mesopotamians were a highly inventive people who created many innovations. They not only invented the seeder plow, but also developed writing, irrigation and sanitation techniques, the "Pythagorean theorem," the concept of zero, glass, and the arch, column, and dome. They revolutionized transportation around 3500 BC by inventing the wheel and were among the first to harness the wind as an energy source by using the sail." mesopotamia.lib.uchicago.edu and Inventions
