Iraqian clay cylinders detail King Nebuchadnezzar II rebuilding temples and praying for victory.
Clay cylinders found in Iraq and published in a 2025 study provide a first-person account of King Nebuchadnezzar II restoring temples dedicated to the gods Zababa and Ishtar.
The inscriptions describe rebuilding walls and embellishing the ziggurat, concluding with a prayer for victory over enemies.
Unlike biblical portrayals of him as a destroyer, the cylinders present a ruler focused on religious restoration and divine favor.
