A ziggurat is a sort of large structure that was constructed in ancient Mesopotamia.It has the shape of a terraced complex with progressively lowering levels or stories. The Great Ziggurat of Ur at Nasiriyah, the Ziggurat of Aqar Quf close to Baghdad, the now-demolished Etemenanki in Babylon, Chogha Zanbil in Khzestn, and Sialk are notable ziggurats. Only priests and other highly esteemed people were allowed entry into the temple at the summit of the Ziggurats because according to the Sumerians, the Gods resided there. They had access to a wide range of social amenities, including music, harvest, and the ability to make figures of worship for the temple.
