Ancient Mesopotamian Meal

Lentil Stew and Flat Bread
Delicious!
It was fun to make an ancient Mesopotamian meal. I learned that mostly only rich people ate meat because people who weren't rich kept their animals for milk. The meal was easy to make. The ingredients were simple. The recipe for the bread is here:  http://mesopotamia.lib.uchicago.edu/lessons_PDF/life_a.pdf. The recipe for the Lentil Stew is:

2 cups lentils
4 cups water 
1/2 tablespoon salt
chopped onion

1. bring everything to boil
2. simmer for 20-25 minutes
