History of Cities
Through out this paper I will discuss, how and why the first cities began, from small villages into city form. I will tell how prominent cities formed through the years of the forth millennium BC, to where we are today. It is a coincidence that the first cities in time took place in the Middle East, one major trade city I feel was really important was Tepe Yahya. Tepe Yahya was a very important city in the Middle East facilitating trade between Mesopotamia and the Indus Valley. From the south Arabia urbanization spread into Asian cities such as the Shang which was developing in the Yellow and Wei river valleys of Honan and Shensi, during the second millennium BC. With the western spread of urbanization from the Indus Region to Europe, the city states of Crete formed, on the Greek islands, around the 2000 BC which led to hundreds of cities around 8th century BC of classical times. The glory of the Greek empire led into the Roman Empire, forming the city of Rome. Also during this time period in the New World the very large and influencing city of Teotipuancan was formed in 200 BC, of which I will also discuss. At around 400-500 AD with the fall of the Roman Empire many Mid-evil Cities were formed in Europe. The Mid-evil Cite
There was a mount 60 ft high and 600 ft in diameter. (6) P12 Technology plays a huge role in the formation of the early city; however without suitable conditions of the land technology was useless. Peasants often sold flowers, fruits and vegetables in the center of the city so they can feed there families. The New York ports also played a key role in the migration form Europe, being the head quarters for the inspection and registration. 21Because most of all transportation was on foot, the most desirable land was in the center of the city. The city was has an unexplained gap in history for about 1000 years form 2000 BC to 1000BC, when it was taken over by people of the Iron age. 31 The agricultural revolution of the 20th century helped enhance the shift from rural to urban land use, and living style. Many of the people, who lived in Teotihuacan, enjoyed using obsidian in crafts, as well as making pottery as a specialization. The housing was primary multi-storey apartment blocks that were building up to 150 feet high, separated by streets less those 10 feet wide. There was a great deal of jobs in the major cities in the 1920 with new mass production industry. The buildings were made of stone, wood or plasters depending which resourses were most available in that particular city. 126 The inhabits of the Shang were skilled in many trades such as stone, bone and shell work.
