At its peak, Uruk had a population of about 100,000 people, making it about 10 times larger than any other city in the world at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Uruk was an important commercial and cultural center. The city was located at the junction of two major rivers, the Euphrates and the Tigris, making it an important trading hub. Uruk was also an important religious center, dedicated to the goddess Inanna (similar with Venus), goddess of love, war, and fertility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Uruk was an important city for the development of writing. Here were discovered some of the oldest written tablets, dating back to around 3000 B.C. These tablets are written in Sumerian, an ancient language that was spoken in Mesopotamia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When and how it was destroyed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Uruk was finally destroyed around 1000 B.C., but its legacy continues to be felt in world culture.
