 Babylon [encyclopedia]
The name is the Greek form of Babel; Semitic form Babilu, meaning "The Gate of God." In the Assyrian tablets it means "The city of the dispersion of the tribes."
The city gradually grew in extent and grandeur, but in process of time it became subject to Assyria.
On the fall of Nineveh (606 BC) it threw off the Assyrian yoke, and became the capital of the growing Babylonian empire.

Acting as cultural middlemen, the Phoenicians disseminated ideas, myths, and knowledge from the powerful Assyrian and Babylonian worlds in what is now Syria and Iraq to their contacts in the Aegean.
Those ideas helped spark a cultural revival in Greece, one which led to the Greeks' Golden Age and hence the birth of Western civilization.
