Slide 7 - Tekstslide

Fertile floods
  •  1. The rivers flooded each year.
  • 2. A fertile layer of clay was left behind.
  • 3. Farmers can grow their crops.
  • Effect = abundance of food.
Vruchtbare overstromingen
-De rivieren stroomden ieder jaar over.
-Een laag van vruchtbare klei werd achtergelaten.
-Boeren konden hun gewassen laten groeien.
-Gevolg: overschot van eten.

Slide 8 - Tekstslide

Agricultural surplus       Cause and effect
Rivers
The rivers flood each year
Bring in fertile clay
Agriculture
People used the flooding to build canals and maintain the water in the dry period irrigation
Farmers produced more food than they could eat = Agricultural surplus
Food
Because of the agricultural surplus not everyone had to be a farmer
Some people became craftsmen
People that make products by hand
A system of small canals to spread water to dry areas is called irrigation. 

Slide 9 - Tekstslide

These:
The rivers flooded every year which left a feritle layer of clay behind, where farmers could grow their crops on. We call this proces Irrigation. 

Slide 10 - Tekstslide

Agricultural-urban
 society
  • = most people work as farmers but some people specialise in other jobs and live in cities. 
Landbouwstedelijke samenleving:
-Meeste mensen werkten als boeren maar sommige mensen specialiseren in andere beroepen en leven in steden.

Slide 11 - Tekstslide

First cities started as markets where farmers would sell their surplus. Craftsman started living here as well to sell their goods.
