Answer 1

Civilization H on the map likely refers to Mesopotamia, an early civilization within the Fertile Crescent, known for its development along the Tigris and Euphrates rivers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The map question H appears to be asking about one of the early river valley civilizations. Given the information provided and the context clues from the chapter outline and descriptions, we can infer that civilization H refers to Mesopotamia.

This area, also known as the Cradle of Civilization, is located within the Fertile Crescent and is associated with early urban societies that settled and thrived along major river valleys, precisely by the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers.

Mesopotamia was historically significant for its innovations, including the invention of the wheel, creation of irrigation canals, and the development of cuneiform writing. It is distinguished from its contemporaries such as Ancient Egypt, The Indus Valley Civilization, and the civilizations along the Yellow River in early China. These civilizations are outlined in chapter sections 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4 respectively.
