why were ziggurats so large
Mesopotamians built ziggurats primarily as religious structures to honor their gods and facilitate worship. These massive, tiered structures served as temples, providing a sacred space for rituals and ceremonies. Additionally, ziggurats symbolized the connection between the heavens and the earth, reflecting the society’s belief in the divine governance of their lives. Their elevated design also allowed for better visibility and prominence within the city.
Ziggurats were first built by the Summerians in 5200 BCE.
Ziggurats were so tall because they believed Mesopotamians to link the heavens and earth.
The Sumerians used the Ziggurats for worshiping the gods. Because the priests were so close to the gods and were meant to worship them, only the priests could enter. Not even the kings were allowed in!
The people allowed inside ziggurats were the priests that were assigned to take care of the building. They were not places of worship, they were the house of the god.
