[edit]"There is some speculation that the biblical King Nimrod was, in fact, Nebo." I removed this statement. Though Mesopotamian kings might identify themselves as servants of a god, gods were personified as the "lord" or "lady" of cities.

Wrong picture
[edit]The ziggurat on the picture is not the one in Borsippa, but the ziggurat in Dur-Kurigalzu: http://www.centroscavitorino.it/en/progetti/iraq/istituti-aqar-quf.html It's the same structure, only with some restorations on the ground.
