A New Plan To Preserve Ancient Babylon
"The World Monuments Fund is launching a project with Iraq to preserve the ancient city of Babylon… [The site] has sustained damage in recent years from Saddam Hussein's efforts to make it a tourist attraction, from looting after the U.S.-led invasion in 2003 and from being used as a military base during the Iraq War."
