The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. It's the only one of the Seven Wonders without a definitively established location. According to one legend, the Gardens were built alongside the palace known as The Marvel of Mankind by the king Nebuchadnezzar II (c. 605 and 562 BC) for his Median wife Queen Amytis, who missed the green hills of her home.

Babylon source of Humarabis code - the penultimate legal system governing property, fines, land management, dowries, adoption, conflicts and slavery. Marduk the city god assumed control of the universe, declaring babylon the center of the universe. A somewhat fanciful but interesting gardens with a Brugel inspired tower of Babylon Another city bites the dust while a king looks on. If you surrendered quickly and made a deal your city could be taxed and made a vassal state and a king could get to be a vassal state and perhaps fight later. Their troops would be expected to serve the empite. If you made it expencive to take you horrible public torture, piles of heads, burning bodies, flailed skins nailed to city walls, slavery for all could result. Wild ass chariots rather than horses - onagers were the principle chariot beast after the early ox wagons of sumeria. This chariot is definatly a light war chariot made of whicker and with a classic sumerian style wheel. Image is a bit of a mix of periods but another good one from look and learn magazine site The ancients liked harish colour if they could. Greeks painted all statues and plain white marble horrid colours. Ziggurats were painted with colours to symbolize the strateography of the universe with lower layers as the earth up to the heavens.

Assyrian royal guard - iron age and best millitary techs in world. Egypt was always more backward with even less resources.
