The Ziggurat of Ur was a temple platform which was a shrine of Nanna, the moon god, who was also the patron deity of the city of Ur. It also served as an administrative center for the city.
It was built by the Sumerian king Ur-Nammu and finished by his son Shulgi, in the 21st century. The latter declared himself to be a God, in order to win the allegiance of cities. His rule saw his massive control over much of Mesopotamia.
The last king of the Neo-Babylonian empire, King Nabonidus, had it restored in seven stages instead of three, having nothing left to get him the original appearance of the monument.
