The Greatness of Babylon. The History of the Ancient Civilization of Mesopotamia

In his book, the English orientalist Henry Saggs presents the history of Babylon and Assyria from the end of the 4th to the beginning of the 3rd millennium BC in the most comprehensive way to date. He examines the political structure of Mesopotamia, discusses the social and cultural life of society, particularly focusing on aspects such as the economy and governance, which are rarely mentioned in other historical literature. Great attention is paid to religion, which played a huge role in ancient times, and literature as a reflection of the world order. The book presents Mesopotamian chronology in the systematization of known world scholars.
