| Description: | The title of the book and the Babylonian prophecy cited in the epigraph allude to the biblical myth of the Tower of Babel, of which the prophecy itself is largely an inspiration and model. Whether divine nemesis or historical process, whether moral teaching or systemic outcome, it is certain that the ancient cities were all reduced to heaps of rubble: the Babylonians said tillu, from which comes the Arabic tell, which indicates the low stratified hills of the remains of the ancient settlements. |
