 Describe the importance of water in the ancient world.

In the ancient world, water was practically what every civilization/family/person depended on. Water was used for almost everything in the ancient world. Farmers needed water to make they're land fertile. They also needed water in able to keep their crops growing and healthy. Without water, no farmer would be able to make a living. Also, water was used for cattle. In order to keep the cattle alive, you needed food and water, and without the water you wouldn't have food OR water. Without cattle, people wouldn't have any meat to eat, and once again- farmers wouldn't be able to make a living. Finally, people themselves depended on water for survival. Without water, people would cease to exist. The three main things people need are: food, water, and shelter. If water didn't exist, they wouldn't have fruits/vegetables/cattle to eat, or water to drink. Also, they wouldn't be able to make a living, so therefore they wouldn't have a home. Water was everything to the people in the ancient world, without it, none of us would be here.
