    Default Why don't anthroboards respect Mesopotamia/ns ??

    Ever since I became interested in ancient history as a young kid, I was always respectful, if not envious of Mesopotamia. As being from the land of Elam and Persia, Mesopotamia always got all the cake, as the oldest Center of civilization, inventors of Civilization changing stuff such as the wheel and writing. But on anthro forums, Mesopotamia gets shitted on constantly and to call someone a Mesopotamian is considered an insult, instead Steppe herders get all the glory, even though they were backwards and uncivilized. Why is that??

    Cause Mesopotamians are darker skinned and less Euros looking than those from the Steppes. Also, Elam/Iraq (the modern day lands on Mesopotamia) are relatively backwards.

    I doubt it has to do with skin colour, anthrotards just don't give a fuck about settled civilizations, no matter how great their achievements. But you have every nationality claiming to be descendants of Scythians, as if they were such a superior people.

    Even in the anthropological and historical discourse Mesopotamia is overlooked, and not studied like say Egypt for example. I believe the main reason is because they were darker skinned and they did not look like Europeans. I believe the original Mesopotamians were pretty dark skinned especially in the Southern regions. The civilizations in Mesopotamia were mostly Semitic rather than Indo-European, and Sumerians were a language isolate. The Semitic Mesopotamians often came from the Arabian peninsula actually, well the Sumerians seemed Iranian neolithic like originally. Plus some say that Mesopotamia had always had interconnection with civilization such as Dilmun in the Arabian peninsula.

    Modern day Iraq situation does not really help the situation. It regressed due to 40 years of war by Western powers. However Eurocentrics still want to claim it, same with Turkocentrist and Afrocentrist but it does not have the allure of you will.
