Vere Gordon Childe's Ten Major Components Of Civilization

Civilization is something that can go extinct if you not have all of the things that you need in life just to stay maintained. Vere Gordon Childe’s found out the ten major components that a civilization would need to have to rise but not fall. Those ten major components were writing, monumental architecture, social stratification, taxation, art, cities and city planning, fulltime craftsmen, predictive sciences, external trade, and notion of a state. This might sound like it is a lot, but if one were to look around his city or town, they would notice that there town carries all of these components, if not they will eventually fall from their hard work of rising up to the top. Sumerians are the first to be on the list at the beginning of the
