Why are dams so designed and constructed to have more massive base structures than tops?
Dams are designed with more massive base structures than tops to ensure stability and withstand the immense water pressure exerted by the reservoir. The larger base distributes the weight and force of the water more effectively, preventing structural failure and sliding. This design also helps counteract the forces of erosion and seismic activity, ensuring the dam's longevity and safety. Additionally, a wider base provides a stronger foundation, which is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the entire structure.

What did ziggurats look like?
Ziggurats were massive, terraced structures built in ancient Mesopotamia, characterized by their step-like design. They typically had a rectangular base and several levels or tiers, with each level smaller than the one below it, often culminating in a shrine at the top. Constructed from mud bricks, ziggurats were adorned with vibrant colors and had staircases leading to the upper levels, serving both religious and administrative purposes. Their imposing height and intricate design made them prominent landmarks in ancient cities.
