Ancient Egyptians, Phonecians, and the Babylonians were located near each other but their culture wasn't all that same. One culture was a master at building ships and sailing the the sea, and the other were masters at building.

social structure:

  • the ruler or king was the most important person in every culture. his family was second in the social structure, and finally there were the nobles.
  • the structure usually looked like this: king -> priest -> rich people -> farmers/workers -> women
  • In Babylon the harshness of your punishment was affected by the type of your social class
