BABYLON,
"The Bond of Heaven & Earth"
Digital Art Museum Schematic Plan
It is well known that Robert Johann Koldewey is considered the first archaeologist who started the systematic expedition of Babylon in 1898. Worldwide, archaeologists have used several schematic maps of Babylon since then. Among the most popular maps was the one drawn during Koldewey’s expedition of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon during 1899-1917.
Many
historians included schematic plans of Babylon in their studies, however, they
were either displayed incomplete geographic or /and architectural details of Babylon.
However, no study, including the famous Cultural Atlas of
Mesopotamia and the ancient near east by Michael Roaf and the Historical Atlas
of Ancient Mesopotamia by Norman Bancroft Hunt, covered the most important
structures and city details. The two atlases mentioned above were either
incorrectly labeled or failed to include important structures.
Even the Iraqi State Organization of Antiquities and Heritage,
known for publishing many well-done maps, missed important details.
The enclosed 2004-2021 colored, digital art schematic map of
Babylon, which I have researched and sketches, is almost the perfect version of
Babylonian structures, quarters, and landmarks.
This beautiful extraordinary digitally-drawn colorful
museum-quality plan of Babylon signed by the artist, which was published in the newly released book
Chaldean Legacy is available at:
