It’s not difficult to find when you realize “Babylon” in Genesis was an anachronism for Eridu, the first known city in Mesopotamia.

With this in mind, the Biblical Cush was the first Erudite king, Meskiagcasher, and Nimrod, builder of the tower, was Enmerkar.

The foundation of the never-completed tower is still amongst the ancient ruins. It was originally a shrine to the fertility goddess Innana that turned into a vanity project to reach the heavens.

Yes. Saw that video. They’re trying to late date the tower to the Babylonian captivity and to Babylon.

Agree with you. Much older...and in Eridu.
