Ometeotl: The supreme god of Aztec mythology

  

00.
In ancient times, all people spoke the same language. They migrated eastward and settled in the land of Shinar, where they decided to build a tower tall enough to reach the heavens—to make a name for themselves and avoid being scattered across the earth. They used baked bricks and tar instead of stone and mortar, and they eagerly began construction.

But the Lord saw their pride and their ambition, knowing that with a common language, nothing would be beyond their reach. To halt their defiance, He confused their speech so they could no longer understand one another. The work on the tower stopped, chaos spread, and the people eventually scattered across the world. The unfinished tower was called Babel (meaning "confusion"), and from then on, humanity was divided by different languages and nations

The original account appears in the 11th chapter of Genesis in the Bible, emphasizing religious metaphors of linguistic differentiation and human arrogance, but does not describe the specific form of the tower .





19th century German archaeological team (Robert Caldwe): excavation of the Babylonian ruins, confirmation of the square base (90×90 m) and masonry structure of Ettman Angie, found traces of bitumen bonding, consistent with the biblical description.

Ur Ziggurat: The most complete surviving ziggurat (c. 21st century BC), providing a reference for the early form of the Tower of Babel.

Esagila Tablet (229 BCE): A history of the dimensions and restoration of the Etemenanki in Babylon, mentioning that it was "90 meters long on the sides of the base and seven stories high", and is believed to be the prototype of the Tower of Babel

Due to the destruction of the Babylonian ruins, the exact appearance of Ettman Angie is still debated, but the mainstream restoration models are based on a stepped layered design (see the model at the Pergamon Museum in Berlin)
