These are two inappropriate comparisons.
xia Dynasty: It was a unified country with a core monarch.
Sumerian Civilization: It is a collective name for a series of national and urban civilizations born in the Mesopotamia. The timeline is very long.

這是兩個(gè)不恰當(dāng)?shù)谋容^。
夏朝:是一個(gè)有核心君主的統(tǒng)一國(guó)家。
蘇美爾文明:是誕生于美索不達(dá)米亞的一系列民族和城市文明的統(tǒng)稱,他的時(shí)間線很長(zhǎng)。

The two cannot be compared.
Correct comparison:
Which is older, the Chinese civilization or the Sumerian civilization?
Or:
Which is older, the Akkadian Empire or the xia Dynasty;

兩者不能相提并論。
正確比較:
中華文明和蘇美爾文明哪個(gè)更古老?
或者:
阿卡德帝國(guó)和夏朝哪個(gè)更古老?

Here is a simple comparison:
1. Which is older, the Chinese civilization or the Sumerian civilization?
The earliest urban ruins discovered in the Sumerian civilization area are the ruins of Ur. About 7000-4500 years ago.
The earliest urban ruins of Chinese civilization were discovered in Jiangxi Province, today's China. It is called the Chengtoushan Ancient City Ruins, which dates back to about 6500-4800 years ago.
Taking the establishment of cities as a symbol, the Sumerian civilization was a little earlier. Considering the errors in archaeological science's judgment of ancient times, it can basically be regarded as a civilization that developed in the same era.

這是一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的比較:
1.中華文明和蘇美爾文明哪個(gè)更古老?
蘇美爾文明地區(qū)發(fā)現(xiàn)的最早的城市遺址是烏爾遺址。距今約7000-4500年。
中華文明最早的城市遺址是在今天的中國(guó)江西省發(fā)現(xiàn)的。城頭山古城遺址,距今約6500-4800年。
如果文明以城市的建立為標(biāo)志,蘇美爾文明要早一些。考慮到考古學(xué)對(duì)古代時(shí)間的判斷錯(cuò)誤,兩者基本上可以認(rèn)為是同一時(shí)代發(fā)展起來(lái)的文明。

2. Which is older, the xia Dynasty or the Akkadian Empire?
The xia Dynasty was the first dynasty in Chinese civilization with clear historical records, royal identity records and archaeological discoveries. According to ancient Chinese historical records, the xia Dynasty existed from 2070 BC to 1600 BC.
The Akkadian Empire was the first unified state in Mesopotamia, ending the region's previous state of tribes and city-states. According to discovered historical records, the Akkadian Empire was founded from 2334 BC to 2192 BC.
Therefore, judging from the time of its establishment, the Akkadian Empire is older than the xia Dynasty.

2.夏朝和阿卡德帝國(guó)哪個(gè)更古老?
夏朝是中華文明中第一個(gè)有明確歷史記載、王室身份記錄和考古發(fā)現(xiàn)的王朝。據(jù)中國(guó)古代史料記載,夏朝存在于公元前2070年至公元前1600年。
阿卡德帝國(guó)是美索不達(dá)米亞第一個(gè)統(tǒng)一國(guó)家,結(jié)束了該地區(qū)以前的部落和城邦國(guó)家。根據(jù)已發(fā)現(xiàn)的歷史記錄,阿卡德帝國(guó)成立于公元前2334年至公元前2192年。
因此,從建立時(shí)間來(lái)看,阿卡德帝國(guó)比夏朝還要古老。
