In the river valley where urban society first arose several thousand years ago, my attention naturally focuses in on the moment they started building ginormous stuff. In this video we will learn two things: 1) The great Ziggurat of Ur is one of human civilization's earliest urban masterpieces, and 2) I'm impeccably basic.
I am reveling in my architecture era.
Special thanks to our discord community member and Levantine Archaeology extraordinaire Jacob Khan for his assistance on the script, helping me find a few key details I missed and setting me straight where my draft had some mis-characterizations and errors. Any remaining error in the video are mine. Again, thank you Jacob!
