Untitled[edit]

"There is some speculation that the biblical King Nimrod was, in fact, Nebo." I removed this statement. Though Mesopotamian kings might identify themselves as servants of a god, gods were personified as the "lord" or "lady" of cities.

Deleted external links[edit]

External link or links have recently been deleted by User:Calton as "horrible Tripod pages which add little information, are full of ads, and fail WP:EL standards." No better external links were substituted. Readers may like to judge these deleted links for themselves, by opening Page history. --Wetman 15:01, 2 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong picture[edit]

The ziggurat on the picture is not the one in Borsippa, but the ziggurat in Dur-Kurigalzu: http://www.centroscavitorino.it/en/progetti/iraq/istituti-aqar-quf.html It's the same structure, only with some restorations on the ground.
