The Mighty Ziggurat of UR.



Here I am standing on the edge of the Ziggurat, at the top.



That was our tour guide. His grandfather was on of the original excavators of the Ziggurat site. He is standing next to what is believed to be one of the first museums of its time.



The Musesm strechs from this point all the way to the Ziggurat.






Abarhams house. Reconstructed in the '90s for the pope to visit. The Pope ended up not visiting because after construction was completed Sadam said he would not be responsible for the Pope's safety.




Another temple in Ur.
