The history of Ancient Babylonia in ancient Mesopotamia is epic. After playing host to three great empires, the Hammurabic and Kassite empires, and the Neo-Babylonian Empire ruled by Nebuchadnezzar, it was conquered by the Persians. Entered triumphantly by Alexander the Great, it later provided the setting for the Conquerer's deathbed. Squabbled over by his heirs, Babylonia was subsequently dominated by the Parthian and Roman empires.

In this Very Short Introduction, Trevor Bryce takes us on a journey of more than 2,000 years across the history and civilization of ancient Babylonia, from the emergence of its chief city, Babylon, as a modest village on the Euphrates in the 3rd millennium BC through successive phases of triumph, decline, and resurgence until its royal capital faded into obscurity in the Roman imperial era. Exploring key historical events as well as the day-to-day life of an ancient Babylonian, Bryce provides a comprehensive guide to one of history's most profound civilizations.

Triggers rocasea
It isn't as greasy feeling as I thought it might be, and it smells good and feels nice and creamy. I have slight rocasea, and the product made my skin turn red and burn a little. I'm not sure whether I should continue using it. It might be great for people without rocasea.

Smooth skin!
This product is so smooth and the scent is very faint of honey! My skin feels softer now and it doesn’t leave my eczema/psoriasis feeling more itchy after applying. It has a cooling effect.

Middle of the jar was emptied
When I swiped my finger across the top layer to scoop out enough to put on my face, I notice a deep void in the middle of the jar. The middle of the jar was missing the whipped tallow.
