Babylonia Meet & Greet

Map of ancient Babylonian area

Nestled between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in the Fertile Crescent laid an ancient civilization: Babylonia. Babylonian was an area of land home to many cities, the most important being Babylon. Babylon grew up along the rivers because water was vital to provide the means to farm and sustain life. The Babylonians created the irrigation system to water their crops. Babylon was created about 4000 years ago. Even though Babylon existed so long ago, life was very exciting!
