Abstract EN

The people in ancient Mesopotamia know many minerals (Metal Tools), and they also know how to manufacture it and used them.

Minerals have entered in many of their businesses and industries, even in the field of producing artworks (artifacts).

Pots and agricultural tools as well as weapons they used in everyday life.

The most important of these metals are: gold, silver, copper, and tin, which some of them entered in the work of bronze bullion (Al-Jader, 1991, p.225).

The ancient Mesopotamians struggled to get the materials, they were carrying the tired journeys in order to bring the raw materials from far away counties, among them were Dilmun, Magan, Meluhha, Eygpt and Anatolia (Levy, 1986, p.19).

So we did not care about the all kinds of minerals, but we define our works about one type of this metals, which is a copper metal.

So the copper regarded the first mineral which known to the people of ancient Mesopotamia, they used it very much in their lives, this had been a major turning point in the history of their civilization (Louis, 2008, p.112).
