Babylonian Creation Mythology

Babylon was the greatest city of Kaldia in southern Mesopotamia, situated on the River Euphrates. Babylonian named the region around the Tigris and Euphrates from Babylon in the north down to the Persian Gulf in the south. The neo-Babylonian empire was closely associated with the Kaldians,. However, Nabonidas, the next great king of Babylon, after the brief reigns of a few successors to Nebuchadnezzar, was Aramean from Haran rather than Kaldian. This would lead to the end of exile for Jerusalem. And as Babylon is brought down, the flock of Judah and Israel will be restored.
