Activity 94: By the Rivers of Babylon
Throughout history, people have depended on natural resources for survival. The availability of food, water, and resources has generally determined where humans have settled and how cultures evolved over time. In this activity, students read about an ancient civilization and create “before” and “after” pictures that describe its decline.
