To solve the crossword puzzle clue, "???e???", with a total of 7 letters and an 'e' in the middle, there are several steps you can follow:

2. Consider words like "empires," "emerged," "settled," "settler," or "settles," which match the pattern "???e???".
3. Next, try to find a word with an 'e' in the middle and two unknown letters before and after it. For instance, "empires" would fit this pattern.
4. However, if none of these words match the crossword clue, you can use an online crossword solver tool or search through a thesaurus or dictionary specifically for words related to early civilization that match the given pattern.

By following these steps, you should be able to find the correct word that solves the crossword puzzle clue.
