		They organized schools at the temples scattered about in almost every part of the empire, and at these tera-koya, as they were called, lessons in ethics, calligraphy, reading and etiquette were given to the sons of samurai and even to youths of the mercantile and manufacturing classes.
		At his command many new temples were built; the country was divided into dioceses under Buddhist prelates; priests were encouraged to teach the arts of road-making and bridge-building, and students were sent to China to investigate the mysteries of the faith at its supposed fountain-head.

	U.C. Berkeley Excavations at El Hibeh
		No further archaeological work in the temple seems to have been carried out until 1980, when the American mission excavated a small probe trench in the pronaos and noted that several meters of Nile flood sediment had accumulated in the temple since the structure was cleared in 1913/14.
		The temple structure itself is presently in poor shape and, because of the fluctuating local watertable resulting from the irrigation of adjacent and nearby fields, its condition worsens every year.
		The temple temenos area is in close proximity to irrigated fields on its east, south, and west, and when these fields are flooded, the surface of the ground at the temple is fully saturated, with standing water in some locations.

		For centuries it was just another provincial town, until it became the capital of Hammurabi's empire (18th century BC) From this time onward it continued to be the capital of Babylonia, though during the domination of the Kassites (1595-1155 BC), the city was renamed "Karanduniash".
		In 689 BC its walls, temples and palaces were razed to the ground and the rubbish thrown into the Arakhtu, the canal which bordered the earlier Babylon on the south.
		This act shocked the religious conscience of Mesopotamia; the subsequent murder of Sennacherib was held to be an expiation of it, and his successor Esarhaddon hastened to rebuild the old city, to receive there his crown, and make it his residence during part of the year.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Christian Doctrine
		Some other American catechisms may be briefly mentioned: the so-called "Dubuque Catechism" by Father Hattenberger; the Small and the Larger Catechism of the Jesuit missionary, Father Weninger (1865); and the three graded catechisms of the Redemptorist Father Müller (1874).
