depends on what you call civilization, but as a culture group and first cities Sumer has the most evidence behind it.  I think the city of Ur is usually regarded as the oldest city..I think.

We discussed this in another thread, and I think we all agreed that the oldest civilisation on earth were the Germans,..... and the bravest warriors, and the best horsemen,and so on..........!
