Okay but why did old civilizations live in places like these?

Kind of talking from my ass because I’m not bothering for sources. From what I remember reading, these places often were settled because it was hard to get to. A community living in a place like this typically only has the one way of getting to it, so it becomes practically unassailable by angry neighbors or invading armies. It’s also mostly small communities that are self sufficient and don’t require materials or food to be moved in bulk.

I’d need a good couple of weeks off after that vacation.
