Some were more into rectangular tombs – talk about avant-garde architecture for the time! Moving over to ancient Mesopotamia, the cradle of civilization, where they invented writing. Yes, thanks to them we can now enjoy the pleasure of texting! And let’s not forget the mysterious Maya, who, apart from predicting the end of the world, also enjoyed a good game of ball where the stakes were literally head-rolling high.
Quick Tip:Fun Fact: Ancient Romans were the original foodies, having invented the foodie staple – the food court, or as they called it, the Thermopolium. Bet you can't say that five times fast after a glass of their finest wine!
