I believe during that time period is the time when everything matters-- where you place your cities, how ahead you are, it sets you up for the rest of the game;
If you do poorly, you're going to get stomped sometime afterwards.
How do you spend your time during this time period?
4000-2000BC, i'm usually setting up to ensure i can be economically safe while maintaining my Roman infantry.
2000BC-1000AD?, more often than not, i'm conquering my neighbors, taking all the precious minerals and luxury resources, all the while suppressing them and ensuring my victory in whichever condition i desire.
In lucky games, i manage to get 15 population in Rome and it's just a intense powerhouse of win.
