Tackk Challenge: Mesopotamia Website

You have your own email address. These email addressees are going to open up a lot of possibilities for us in learning about the ancient world. Today, we are going to take our email address and create an account with Tackk.com so we can make a permanent website. With our own account, you will be able to work on your website anywhere that has internet. If all members of your Ziggurat submit a completed Tackk Website, you will earn the Tackk Badge.
50 Realm Points per individual. Use the checklist to make sure you have what you need.
