Funny, you guys were in denial when I said the ancients were technologically advanced, turns out I was right.
As for the tower of Babel.

Quote:A team of scholars has discovered what might be the oldest representation of the Tower of Babel of Biblical fame, they report in a newly published book.
Carved on a black stone, which has already been dubbed the Tower of Babel stele, the inscription dates to 604-562 BCE.
Quote:The Tower of Babel stele stands out as one of “the stars in the firmament of the book,” wrote Andrew George, a professor of Babylonian at the University of London and editor of the book. The spectacular stone monument clearly shows the Tower and King Nebuchadnezzar II, who ruled Babylon some 2,500 years ago.
Quote:The inscription also depicts the Tower of Babel from a front view, “clearly showing the relative proportions of the 7 steps including the temple on the top,” the Schøyen Collection stated.
The stele even features a line drawing of the ground plan of the temple, revealing both the outer walls and the inner arrangement of rooms.
Moreover, captions clearly identify the tower as the “great ziggurat of Babylon.”
Quote:“Here we have for the first time an illustration contemporary with Nebuchadnezzar II’s restoring and enlargement of the Tower of Babel, and with a caption making the identity absolutely sure,” the Schøyen Collection stated on its website
None of which has anything to do with Genesis being the history of mankind. Stop deflecting.
