National Geographic characterizes civilization as a complex human society, with certain characteristics of cultural & technological development. in many parts of the world, early civilizations formed when people began coming together in urban settlements like the Aztecs & the Inca. However, defining what makes a civilization is still an ongoing topic of conversation among today’s academics. “Civilization” comes from the Latin word “civitas” or “city” & the most basic understanding is “a society made up of cities.” But early in our development anthropologists & scholars started to use the term “civilization” to describe societies they found culturally superior (which they were often a part of), & those they found culturally inferior as “barbaric.” Nowadays our thinking is more inclusive & we recognize civilization is a way that humans can come together & form a society based on a highly developed framework Most anthropologists now agree on these criteria to define a society as a civilization. First, Civilizations have some urban settlements & are not nomadic. They have a division of labor, so not everyone has to focus on growing their own food. They have a class structure & government. They typically have a surplus of food that they can trade as they have the tools & people to grow crops. Writing, trading, artwork & monuments, & the development of science & technology are all aspects of civilizations. & of course, the collection, working & sharing of wooden jigsaw puzzles (just kidding, but we do consider it a highly civilized pastime!).
