Borsipo

Borsipo aŭ Borsippa (en sumera: BAD.SI.(A).AB.BA^KI; en akada: Barsip kaj Til-Barsip) aŭ Birs Nimrud (identigita kun Nimrod) estas arkeologia kuŝejo en Gubernio Babil, Irako. La zigurato estas nuntempe unu el la plej klare identigeblaj survivantaj, identigita en la posta kulturo de Araboj kun la Babela turo. Tamen, moderna fakularo konkludas, ke la konstruistoj sumer-akadaj de la Zigurato reale starigis ĝin kiel religia konstruaĵo honore de la loka dio Nabu, nomita la "filo" de la Babilona Marduk, kio estus pli taŭga por malgranda fraturbo de Babilono.
