The gardens had waterways to get water to the gardens as the roman did.
No. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon have not been identified, archeologically, up to this point in time. (In ancient history, they were described as so beautiful that they were considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World.)
they built a lever system pulled by slaves that would bring a bucket down and up to water it.
Irrigation systems have been used for several thousand years. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were irrigated with water wheels that pumped water into the elevated gardens.
Nebuchadnezzar II.Nebuchanezzar II, rule of Babylonia from 605 to 562 B.C., brought the capital city of Babylon back to its former grandeur- and then some! Destroyed by the Assyrians around 689 B.C., the city was rebuilt by Nebuchadnezzar, who decorated temples and palaces with lavish gold and silver ornamentation, making it the most magnificent city of the day. Nebuchadnezzar's most noted contribution to the glory of Babylon was a series of terraced gardens called the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. Kept lush and green by an elaborate irrigation system, these towering gardens were considered one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. Nebuchanezzar may have built the gardens to please his wife, who was from Mede and missed the forested mountains of her homeland.Courtesy of Kids Discover 'Mesopotamia'

Accounts indicate that the garden was built by King Nebuchadnezzar, who ruled the city for 43 years starting in 605 BC (There is an alternative story that the gardens were built by the Assyrian Queen Semiramis during her five year reign starting in 810 BC). This was the height of the city's power and influence and King Nebuchadnezzar is known to have constructed an astonishing array of temples, streets, palaces and walls. According to accounts, the gardens were built to cheer up Neuchadnezzar's homesick wife, Amyitis. Amyitis, daughter of the king of the Medes, was married to Nebuchadnezzar to create an alliance between the two nations. The land she came from, though, was green, rugged and mountainous, and she found the flat, sun-baked terrain of Mesopotamia depressing. The king decided to relieve her depression by recreating her homeland through the building of an artificial mountain with rooftop gardens.
of course Babylonia had a irrigation system, without water how would the plants in hanging gardens be able to survive, after all water is one of the building blocks to a Civilization.
It was one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The irrigating system was one of the most accomplished engineer deeds.

A written code of rights, a hanging garden, a huge library, a communications system, Lets think first... Why the heck would it be a hanging garden? And I dont remember any hanging gardens in the textbook... Hmm, Give a guess now, a written code of rights sounds pretty good but are we sure? Think about it.
