Post-Reading Quick Check
Farm-based societies required cooperation and
organization among villagers to develop sys-
tems of irrigation. As leaders emerged, farm-
ing led to better food production. Surplus
food then led to increases in population, and
some villages became cities. Artisans could
make goods that could be sold by traders.
Goods and ideas traveled from place to place
resulting in an exchange of cultures. This dif-
fusion of cultures gave birth to civilizations.
