Talk:Robert Koldewey

Building this article around the "Hanging Gardens" is nonsense

Koldewey excavated something he thought could have been a foundation or structure relating to the Hanging Gardens - but there is absolutely no evidence that it was. There's no real evidence that it even actually existed, apart from the references in a few Greek works.

The article should be structured more around Koldewey's work at Babylon and other sites, like the important North Syrian site of Zincirli. Leave out the sensational "Hanging Gardens" stuff. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 136.152.136.119 (talk) 07:40, 7 February 2007 (UTC).

The reference to "modern scholars" who dispute his discovery of the "Hanging Gardens" has no citations. I have no opinion on the existence of the Hanging Gardens but I do know that rivers can periodically change their paths. So if the Hanging Gardens ever existed, it is quite possible that the river has changed its path away from the site since. Rivers in industrialized countries are usually boxed in by levies and damns to assure they stay in the same path and do not rip a new path during floods. 141.155.156.126 (talk) 16:53, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
