The Bible does not provide a precise number of years between the Flood and the Tower of Babel. According to the biblical genealogies, it could be estimated to be several hundred years, possibly around 100-200 years.
The Tower of Babel is a biblical story about the construction of a tower by people who spoke the same language, which resulted in God confounding their language. Ziggurats, on the other hand, were ancient Mesopotamian temple structures built in the shape of stepped pyramids that served as religious centers and were likely the inspiration for the Tower of Babel story. While ziggurats were real architectural structures, the Tower of Babel is considered a mythological explanation for the diversity of languages.
According to tradition, the Flood was in 2104 BCE, and Sodom was destroyed in 1713 BCE. See also:Evidence of the Flood
According to Archbishop James Ussher's chronology done in the 17th century, Adam was created 4,000 years before Jesus or 4,004 BC which equates to 1 Anno Mundus (year of the World).Noah's Flood occurred in this timeline 2344 BC when Noah was 600 years old. This would be 1656 Anno Mundus or the length of time between the creation of Adam and the start of the Flood.
The flood is said to have occurred around 2,348 BC, while the birth of Christ is traditionally believed to have occurred around 4 BC. Therefore, the approximate time between the flood and the birth of Christ is around 2,352 years.
Abraham lived after the flood, according to the Bible. The flood story is associated with Noah, who was a few generations before Abraham.
According to the Bible, the flood occurred during the time of Noah, while the story of the Tower of Babel follows several generations later. The time between the flood and the Tower of Babel is not explicitly specified, but it is thought to span many years, possibly centuries.
Noah's ark (Gen 6) happened many years before the tower of Babel (Gen 11). Gen 11 discusses the flood as a past event. In the Tower of Babel narrative God does not destroy the tower nor the people but alters people's language so they cannot understand each other.
That is difficult to estimate, but here are some considerations... The tower of Babel was built somewhere between 2247 BC and 952 BC. [1] Abraham was born and died between: approx 2000 B.C. and 1500 B.C. [2] At age 175, Abraham dies and is buried in Macpelah [2] so... to ballpark it... If the Tower of Babel was finished being built in 1600 BC and If Abraham was born in 1750 BC and died in 1575 BC then... Abraham would have been 150 years old when the Tower of Babel was finished.
The Bible does not explicitly mention Shem's presence at the Tower of Babel. Shem was one of Noah's sons and was alive during that time, but his specific involvement in the events at the Tower of Babel is not recorded in the biblical account.
Babel was built 2240bc Nov 18 Noah's year 732 which is 132x 360 days and so 130 years after the Flood 2370bc. For 346 years babel had no king, but rather when kings were being

Probalby not. Ur is east of Shinar. Babel had been abandoned by most of the descendants of Noah years before in Babylon.
Ryan Babel is 24 years old (birthdate: December 19, 1986).
Isaac Babel was born on July 13, 1894 and died on January 27, 1940. Isaac Babel would have been 45 years old at the time of death or 121 years old today.
The Tower of Babel definitely existed in Babylon. The Greek historian Herodotus wrote of the ziggurat. Even in 460 BC, after the tower had been crumbling for many years, the Greek historian Herodotus visited the tower and was very impressed. "It has a solid central tower, one furlong square, with a second erected on top of it and then a third, and so on up to eight. All eight towers can be climbed by a spiral way running around the outside, and about halfway up there are seats for those who make the journey to rest on." There are three possible locations for it:- ...[T]he Tower of Babel [is] somewhere in Babylon [b]ut there are three principal opinions as to its precise position in the city. (1) ....located the tower in the north of the city, on the left bank of the Euphrates, where now lie the ruins called Babil....... (2) ... places the tower on the ruins of Tell-Amram, ...These ruins are situated on the same side of the Euphrates as those of the Babil, and also within the ancient city limits. (3)...tower of Babel with the ruins of the Birs-Nimrud, in Borsippa, situated on the right side of the Euphrates, some seven or eight miles from the ruins of the city proper. ...
A:The Book of Genesis does tell us that the different cultures and languages in the world are a result of sin in the context of the Tower of Babel story. However, this story was written quite late in Jewish history, during the Babylonian Exile. The exiled Jews, who had never before seen a great cosmopolitan city like Babylon, were in awe of the great ziggurut, a pyramid-like tower, and at the same time surprised to meet people who spoke so many different languages. They associated the tower, which seemed to reach the heavens, and the many strange languages, and so developed the story of the Tower of Babel. Scientists say that different cultures and languages have existed since the earliest times of human existence and continued to diversify as our ancestors came out of Africa over 70,000 years ago. This was long before any Tower of Babel could be imagined or constructed. New cultures and new languages have continued to develop since good records began, right up to the present time.
