How much was the average ancient Mesopotamian aware of those things?
- benbreen 3y agoLikely very little. But a merchant capable of writing (or paying a scribe to write) a formal cuneiform complaint about bad copper, then having it delivered, would know quite a bit more. Great question IMO - thinking critically about exactly these kinds of questions is one of the goals of the assignment.
