The Babylon Village People

“It’s fun to pray at the
Y...M...C...A”

Babylon Village motto

[Cronos]

Babylon if you look at it through the lens of history had a career from around 2000 BC - it was an Amorite i.e. Semitic speaking people who created the city of Babylon.

So Abraham pre-dated the foundation of Babylon

Far older are the cities to the south - Eridu and Ur. Ur we of course know as the city of Abraham (c. 2000 to 2400 BC) and dates to 4000 BC, but older is Eridu

We have the opening lines of the Sumerian Kinglist

"After kingship had descended from heaven, Eridu became the seat of kingship. In Eridu Aululim reigned ...as king. Alalgar reigned next. .. Eridu was abandoned and its kingship was carried off to Bad-tabira. . . ."The FLOOD then swept over. After the Flood had swept over, and kingship had descended from heaven, Kish became the seat of Kingship.
