Answer 2

I always find it fascinating how different cultures with virtually no contact with each other (until later on in their history, of course) manage to construct buildings or religious pantheons or social structures with such astonishing similarity to each other. As you mentioned, the similarities between the structure of the Mesopotamian’s ziggurats and the Egyptian’s pyramids is clearly evident, though ultimately the usage of the buildings (as a social center/market/religious site and as a final resting place, respectively) differed quite a bit.

The formation of religion itself is an interesting bit of parallelism between ancient societies as well. Both ancient Egypt and ancient Mesopotamia, while likely having little contact with one another, each created a pantheon of gods with dominion over natural worldly and otherworldly forces that are not too dissimilar from each other. They both also, as you mentioned, believed that a specific patron God watched over their city specifically and made offspring to them.
