Oh come on... civilization started with Sumer, in Mespotamia. That is a fact. It started small but grew large... and had, from what I remember, one religion eventually, with a set of gods like all ancient religions... were the cities united? No... and I'm sure there were differences in religion between them... but it was more united than you imply and not just small places that died out. Sumer lasted a long time... until the Akkadians conquered it, after which the Akkadians quickly became civilized, and in their religous services they spoke both Sumerian and Akkadian... and probably took most of their gods and practices from the Sumerians too...
I don't understand and backing for saying that they were that unorganized or "died with their cities"... its just not true...
