Sumer, 4000 BCE – 2500 BCE (And The Substance Of Sacrifice)Sumer is the first civilisation to write, and one of its first words is for the energetic substance that comes out of a killed animal and transmits up to a god. Bulls are sacrificed to Inanna. Sumer is careful to describe the bulls were for sacrifice and not food.
