A ziggurat is a massive structure built in ancient Mesopotamia, characterized by its tiered, pyramid-like shape and stepped design. Typically constructed of mud bricks, ziggurats served as temples dedicated to specific deities, with a shrine at the summit. They symbolized the connection between the heavens and the earth, often featuring a series of ramps or staircases leading to the top. Ziggurats were central to the religious and cultural life of the cities in which they were built.
