The Mesopotamian Map of Mystery, Or, From Babylon to the Boondocks and Back Again, Hopefully
A wonderful newish video about the famous 6th century Babylonian tablet showing a map of the world has us thinking. Sure, there are a bunch of Mesopotamian field and building plans, more of a zoning and taxes thing, but why aren’t there more maps? Maybe they knew that no matter where you go, there you are.
See the video here!
