Mesopotamia, considerada la cuna de la civilización, ha sido el hogar de sumerios, babilonios, asirios y acadios. En esta tierra entre rÃos tuvieron lugar los mayores avances de la Humanidad que cambiarÃan drásticamente el transcurso de la Historia: la invención de la rueda y de la escritura. En un terreno inhóspito, rodeado por desiertos y barro, diversos pueblos aprovecharon la fertilidad del Tigris y el Éufrates para formar las primeras estructuras sociales de mayor complejidad. AsÃ, aparecieron las primeras ciudades-estado como Ur o Uruk que durante el III milenio a.C. se batieron por obtener la hegemonÃa del creciente fértil. Mientras que en Mesopotamia se construÃan los primeros zigurats, grandes templos escalonados, Egipto todavÃa no habÃa sido unificado y quedaban varios siglos para que Stonehenge fuese construido.
Mi principal objetivo con esta serie de artÃculos es lograr que este perÃodo obtenga el reconocimiento que merece, pues en mi opinión, ha sido eclipsado por el Imperio Egipto, sus pirámides y sus faraones. Por esta razón gran parte de los principales reinos e imperios de la Edad Antigua han caÃdo en el olvido de buena parte de la población como el Imperio Neoasirio, el Imperio Hitita o el Reino de Mitanni. Por lo tanto, la intención de esta serie de artÃculos es explicar la organización social, el arte y las creencias de las distintas culturas que habitaron Mesopotamia durante toda la Edad Antigua hasta llegar a las conquistas de Ciro el Grande. Pasando por la creación del primer imperio del mundo, el imperio acadio, hasta los distintos perÃodos de dominio asirio, asà como la enigmática civilización sumeria. Desde los zigurats y los templos asirios hasta los famosos jardines colgantes de Babilonia o la Puerta de Ishtar del Imperio Babilónico, en estos artÃculos vamos a adentrarnos en casi tres milenios de Historia.
