Babylonia properly refers to an area, not a civilization. The civilization is Sumeria. The Sumerians came from nowhere, built their architecturally complex cities, developed sophisticated base 60 math for no logical reason, a written language like no other - demonstrating that human progress is NOT linear, and, in fact, may be regressive!

This progress is akin to a 5 year old building a nuclear-powered space ship in a common basement with just the tools and materials found there. Why is he doing it, what does he get out of it, and where does he intend to go with it, for what purpose?

In other words, there was one or more civilizations which have not been found to date (or have been found but not recognized ... 12,000 year old Göbekli Tepe comes to mind) that preceded it.

There’s a new book out, The Worldwide Flood: Uncovering and Correcting the Most Profound Error in the History of Science, that mentions Gobekli Tepe as well as other civilizations that were lost to the flood.

I suggest that you get the book - it makes clear that geology is responsible for misunderstanding our past. Book is available at Amazon.

Note: this topic is from 8/24/2017. Thanks BenLurkin . And kudos to PIF for pointing out that this isn't a Babylonian artifact, it's a Sumerian artifact.
