Category:Uruk period

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Articles relating to the Uruk period (ca. 4000-3100 BC), which existed from the protohistoric Chalcolithic to the Early Bronze Age period in the history of Mesopotamia, after the Ubaid period and before the Jemdet Nasr period. Named after the Sumerian city of Uruk, this period saw the emergence of urban life in Mesopotamia and the Sumerian civilization. The late Uruk period (34th to 32nd centuries) saw the gradual emergence of the cuneiform script and corresponds to the Early Bronze Age.
