| | |  Babylon: Encyclopedia II - Babylon - Archaeology of Babylon
Historical knowledge of Babylon's topography is derived from classical writers, the inscriptions of Nebuchadrezzar, and several excavations, including those of the Deutsche Orientgesellschaft begun in 1899. The layout is that of the Babylon of Nebuchadrezzar; the older Babylon destroyed by Sennacherib having left few, if any, traces behind.
Most of the existing remains lie on the east bank of the Euphrates, the principal ones being three vast mounds: the Babil to the north, the Qasr or "Palace" (also known as the Mujelliba) in the cen ...

| | | | Babylon: Encyclopedia II - Babylon - History The earliest mention of Babylon is in a dated tablet of the reign of Sargon of Akkad (24th century BC short chr.), who made it the capital of his empire. Over the years its power and population waned. From around the 20th century BC, it was occupied by Amorites (nomadic Semitic tribes), flooding southern Mesopotamia from the the west, until it became the capital of Hammurabi's empire (ca. 18th century BC). From that time onward, it continued to be the capital of Babylonia, though during the 440 years of domination by the Kassites (1595-1155 BC), the city ...

| | | | Babylon: Encyclopedia II - Whore of Babylon - Babylon and Rome Many Bible scholars agree that Babylon in the whore's title is meant as an allegory of Rome — perhaps specifically at the time to some aspect; of Rome's rule (brutality, greed), or even a servant people that does the bidding of Rome. The Roman Catholic commentary of the Jerusalem Bible, the evangelical Protestant commentary of the New International Version Study Bible, the Rastafarians and the liberal Protestant commentary of the Oxford Annotated Study Bible all concur that "Babylon is the symbolic name for Rome" and that "Rome" is the "type of any place where evil is supr ...

| | | | Babylon: Encyclopedia II - Project Babylon - The Babylon devices The first, "Baby Babylon", was a horizontally-mounted device which was simply a prototype for test purposes, with a bore of 350 mm (almost 14 inches), and a barrel length of 46 metres (about 170 feet).
The second, "Big Babylon", of which a pair were planned (one to be mounted horizontally at least initially, for test purposes) was an absolute monster. The barrel was to be 156 metres (about 500 feet) long, with a bore of 1 metre (over 3 feet). Originally intended to be suspended by cables from a steel framework, it would have been over ...

Whore of Babylon - Protestant Reformation.
Some pre-Reformation writers and most of the Reformers themselves, from Martin Luther (who wrote On the Babylonian Captivity of the Church), John Calvin, and John Knox (who wrote The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstrous Regiment of Women) identify the Roman Catholic Church with the Whore of Babylon. This opinion influenced several generations in England and Scotland when it was put into the 1599 edition of the Geneva Bible. As a tradition, it co ...

| | | | Babylon: Encyclopedia II - The Two Babylons - Criticism The evangelical minister Ralph Woodrow made the case in his book "Babylon Mystery Religion" that Roman Catholicism was a syncretic religion that had evolved from pagan Babylon. Mr. Woodrows ideas had been developed from even earlier tracts by 19th Century Scottish Minister Alexandar Hislop, most notably, his '"The Two Babylons". Woodrow's modern writing style had caused his book (and Hislops theories) to bec ...
