“And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran. And he lighted upon a certain place, and tarried there all night, because the sun was set; and he took of the stones of that place, and put them for his pillows, and lay down in that place to sleep.

Because the ancient Greeks and Egyptians wrote about the Babylonians most people did not realize that the Sumerians preceded the Babylonians. Furthermore, it was the Sumerians who developed writing, religious and agricultural systems which later the Babylonians continued. During the early 1800's it was the British, German…

Howling, laughing, whistling, were to be heard. It was as though a gang of murderers and robbers were passing by in the unrecognizable depths of the street. Mingled with them, shrieks of women, wild with excitement. Maria 's eyes sought the New Tower of Babel. She would go there, to Joh Fredersen. But she never went.
