About this listen

Empires rose and fell along the Tigris and Euphrates, while a civilization—vast, complex, and awe-inspiring—shaped the world we know today...

Discover the myths, legends, achievements, and history of the world’s first great civilization—Mesopotamia!

Mesopotamia, the "land between two rivers," was the cradle of civilization. In present-day Iraq and parts of Iran, Syria, and Turkey, this region birthed the Sumerians, Akkadians, Babylonians, and Assyrians. Spanning nearly 5,000 years—from Eridu’s founding to Babylon’s fall—Mesopotamia introduced writing, cities, legal systems, and astronomy, laying the foundation for future societies.Yet its monumental influence remains hidden from many. This audiobook brings ancient Mesopotamia to life in an engaging and accessible way for all listeners.

In this audiobook, you'll explore:

  • Major Mesopotamian empires—Sumer, Akkad, Babylon, Assyria, and Persia
  • Mythology including the Epic of Gilgamesh and the Enuma Elish
  • The reign of Sargon of Akkad, one of history’s first empire builders
  • Mesopotamia’s legacy in cuneiform writing, astronomy, law, and architecture
  • Religion and gods like Enlil, Ishtar, and Marduk
  • Historical and Biblical ties to cities like Ur
  • Life in Babylonian city-states with ziggurats and temples

Whether you're a student, history enthusiast, or curious listener, this audiobook is your gateway into Mesopotamia—land of innovation, myth, and empire.

Unearth the stories and legacies that shaped civilization—listen to Mesopotamia today.
