The Tower of Babel is a biblical narrative found in Genesis 11:1-9, and it is not historically dated to a specific year. Traditionally, it is thought to have been built after the Great Flood, during the time when humanity was unified with one language. Scholars suggest it may reflect the construction of ziggurats in ancient Mesopotamia, particularly around the time of the Babylonian Empire, which flourished from the 18th to 6th centuries BCE. However, as a mythological account, its exact dating remains uncertain.

Yes.
The Bible does not provide a specific age for Noah at the time the Tower of Babel was built. According to the genealogies in Genesis, Noah lived for 350 years after the flood, which occurred when he was 600 years old. The Tower of Babel story follows the flood narrative, but the exact timeline of events is not detailed, making it impossible to determine Noah's age during the construction of the Tower of Babel.
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 Tower of Babel is a story from the Bible found in Genesis 11:1-9, and it does not specify a particular year for its construction. Traditionally, it is believed to have taken place in ancient Mesopotamia, but since it is a mythological narrative rather than a historical account, there is no definitive date associated with it. Scholars often suggest it reflects the cultural and architectural developments of ancient civilizations like the Babylonians, but again, no specific year can be pinpointed.
