Question

Having a ziggurat signified that a Sumerian city was?​

Answer 1

Answer:

A Sumerian city was deemed as geographically large and politically important if it had a ziggurat.

Explanation:

• In ancient times, the administrative buildings and the places of worship in the city determined the significance of the cities.

• In the Mesopotamian civilization, a special structure called ziggurat was build to serve as the heightened platform to dispense ease while talking to God.

• The people then believed that God lives in the skies and in order to make him listen to the prayers, it is better to go a little closer to him by climbing up to tall places.
