In 5600, the Mediterranean flooded into the Black Sea lake with so much force, it drove the many peoples around it far away. Some carried civilization to Sumeria and Egypt, others built the world's largest buildings along their path to modern-day Paris. Come face the starvation, theft and wars these people encountered. |

 Ubaids - The Original Sumerians
Role Play Thread
|
The Ubaids are thought to have originated at the east end of the Black Sea, south of the Caucasus Mtns. Their language has certain similarities with that of the people in those mountains.
Ryan and Pitman place their origin at the east end of the Black Sea, where they probably had good relations with the Kartvellian people. They may have migrated east through the Rioni Valley. They eventually ended up staying with the people at the southeast end of the Zagros Mtns, teaching their farming and other technologies to the people who lived there. Eventually, they got over their fear of large bodies of water, and moved down to the flatlands, which became Sumeria.
