No, both can not be true. Babylon is not a mythological place but an actual city state...regardless of what has been written about it. Egypt and Greece are not myths either. Nice try though.@@Oj4y1
Thank God it did.. people always crying about something. Nothing should be returned to "where it originally was" especially if that place is the middle east. It gets sold and disappears for decades or worse blown up with dynamite and bulldozed saddest thing ever. Take these things somewhere they can be protected from man and weathering
That was a great review Stephanie. I’ve stood in front of this incredible structure but wondered about most of the things depicted on it? Your insights and knowledge are fantastic 🙏
No wood in Babylon? Mesopotamia is the most fertile land in history surrounded by 2 of the longest rivers in the world. There almost nothing that cannot be planted there, And still to this day.
Dear S... It was Mesopotamia... The land between two rivers.... And it is Iraq now and it is a place of Aden paradise.... Thus it is not about oil and desert... All the best
I concur, it was lush and beautiful place. teeming with life. THAT'S WHY the city is there. BUT, due to deforestation, - the people love cutting down trees for everything and burn wood like no tomorrow,- the desert kept growing until there is no turning back. SIMILAR thing happened to Egypt. Ancient Egypt was green and lush, teeming with all kinds of fish and birds. Trade up the Nile was the pride of Egypt as was the green reed that made Egypt famous.
Seen you on another channel about museum island and followed you here, shared this video about the gateway to my father and next city break Berlin because of your video, keep up the good work
Yes, isn't it? Many of the bricks were made in the 20th century as part of the restoration, but the animals are all original pieces, and the blue directly around them is original. If you look closely, you can see that the original blue is a bit more faded than the new blue. 🤓
Ishtar is Nimrod mother that’s where Easter come from she also had a child Tammuz with her son they challenged Yahweh and was destroyed and it’s all happening again
Hi barsoom43! Thanks for watching, and thanks for the question. "Mythology" means stories that groups of people use to explain how things came to be how they are. Pretty much every culture and historical religion has a mythology. 🙂
Thank you, Stephanie. I came here and subscribed your channel because of the same passion you have with the ancient world's history & antiquity (albeit sans the adequate knowledge in my part). Love your videos... ❤️ BTW, I found you from Radical Living 😁
