Great Ziggurat of Ur | Ur, Iraq

[Matthieu]

I was trying to find when this one was built but couldn't find the date. It was a temple of Nanna.

The architecture is nothing astounding, but for a building of its time, I will rate it a 7.

[Cyrus]

This ziggurat has no historical value because it has been completely reconstructed by the Iraqi Department of Antiquities.
