abstract in English:	This article follows the modern definition of a city and tests its accuracy to the ancient times in different civilizations. The comparison of terms used by the ancients to depict settlements that are contemporary understood as cities or villages is another important matter of this discussion. In those selected civilizations - when the writing systems were created - signs of scripts also were shaped by the urban surroundings. Here the similarities and differences between them are discussed in more detail. All of this information provide us with a new definition of an ancient city that may but not have to be convergent with modern one.
