Babylon as Described by Herodotus and its Historic Fate
The ancient Babylon stood on a level plain as a 14 by 14 mile square city, surrounded by a broad moat and walls with a 80 foot wide base and 200 foot height. It housed 100 brass gateways and cross walls along the Euphrates with 25 river gates. Inside stood the Temple of Bal with a gold image atop a pyramid and a golden table. The city rose to prominence in 747 B C but later became a ruin after Alexander the Great, its site at times lost.
