Just "Burnt City," huh? Aren't there any ancient records, cuneiform tablets from Babylonia, or anything from other cultures, that would hint as to what the actual name of this city was, and who populated it? You'd think a city that had been wiped out by fire three times, and abandoned after the last, would pique a little interest that would last a few millennia, lol.
