How did the ziggurate function like city hall?

Ziggurats functioned as central places of worship and administration in ancient Mesopotamian cities, much like a city hall. They served as the focal point for religious activities, where priests conducted rituals and maintained the city's relationship with the gods, which was essential for societal order. Additionally, ziggurats often housed administrative offices, where officials managed civic affairs, enforced laws, and collected taxes, thus integrating both spiritual and governmental functions within the community.
