You do know just because God mixed their languages does not mean people went stupid. That tower represented a huge investment in material an money. Material that all could be reused/repurposed. Meaning those bricks and stones were reused to build cities, homes and other public works in that region.
Or did you think they would just leave the tower stand and fall apart on it's own so we could point to it and confirm this story?
This is just a new assertion you don't have evidence for. Dismantling a huge stone structure and re-using all the bricks, by the way, WOULD still leave evidence that that's what happened; it wouldn't just conveniently erase all the evidence of the assertion you made before.
Example: we now know that Stonehenge was definitely a religious structure because we found the alter just a few miles away from it. Apparently somebody had dragged it off and used it to build a bridge at some point.
A baked brick means something that is small enough to fit into and not crack when baked... So about the size of the bricks we use now.
bricks are far easier to repurpose than 400 ton granite blocks.
After all according to you even the great stone henge was repurposed all except the stuff too heavy to move/move very far. with this in mind what in your estimation should be left at the tower site that was made up of hand size bricks??
