Like the Uruk culture, Ninivite 5 did not pay great attention to the funerary rites and burials were not particularly rich with artifacts."<br /><br />It seems the difference between the western and eastern communities arose mainly as a consequence of the different patterns of social organization of the two groups. Apparently the western group of communities was more tribal while the eastern group was more individualist or state-oriented.Onur Dincerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05041378853428912894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-81991066231595861522013-08-17T14:20:48.934+03:002013-08-17T14:20:48.934+03:00@Dienekes
