I'm watching this as part of my art history class, but it's also good as a glimpse into cultures that aren't my own--past or present. Which is to say, each and every one. A lot of things have happened in my life, and any connection I might have had to my own heritage and culture was lost. Or rather, my own heritage is foreign. At the same time though, I've literally re-created myself as an individual from the ground up--identity, values, and such. And in watching all these videos, along wit connecting with different kinds of people (i.e. Muslims, Christians, people of different ethnicity and cultural backgrounds), I've already found a bit of myself in pretty much everyone and everything. These ancient cultures are no exception. All of this is important, especially today, with the current state of humanity and civilization. Even as someone with no real home or culture--who has to create those from the ground up--it's easy to see how we're all of each other. I'm still trying to figure out how to go about this, since proper channels don't really exist. But maybe I'm not the only one who feels that humanity needs a different path, and a different direction for themselves and their civilization. Looking to these ancient cultures and drawing from them is one way to go about it. Learning from the past to create a prosperous future is important.

Thank you for posting. Your work is what make youtube what it is today. Thank you

The colour of the brick is an interesting touch. At one point, lapis was considered more precious than gold. Perhaps veneering the brick with copper to give it the appearance of lapis, and using the term 'pure blue stone,' was to show the sheer wealth of the city and make people think it was the more expensive precious stone?

Nothing can be said enough about this fabulous piece of history I love it all after seeing this in situation.

Beautiful, simple, and interesting. I love it!

He definitely knew kingdoms will come and go. Babylon being on top of his dream in which Daniel through God told him about it and the interpretation of his dream. Interesting in deed.

I don't think it's idol worship at all. They're historians interested in the history of the time.

Is it possible these are glazed surfaces as is used on colored pottery? That would explain the thin chipping seen in the close ups.

The depiction of the dragon is more reminiscent of the unicorn, perhaps influenced by stories of horses and eye accounts or word of mouth of the rhinoceros

Historians have a pretty good idea of what Babylon's architecture, culture and religion was like thanks to the efforts of assyriologists that have been researching these subjects since the mid XIX century (if not earlier), so that now we have sources other than the Bible, Herodotus, Diodorus or Ctesias on Babylonian history.
