About this episode
The Tower of Babel, Babylon, in modern-day Iraq. It’s one of the most
famous stories in the Old Testament – a tower so tall it’s said to reach the
heavens and anger God. But did the Tower really exist, or is it merely the

artists?
Enjoying rare access to this war-torn site, investigators are uncovering
the long-forgotten secrets of the tower and finally answering the question – is the Bible story true?
