Ishtar Gate of Babylon

Hello and thanks for your interest in my products!

This is a carefull reconstruction of the Ishtar gate which can today be seen at the Pergamon Museum in Berlin.

The Ishtar gate was originally built by the Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar II at around 575 BCE. The gate was constructed using glazed brick with alternating rows of bas-relief aurchoch bulls and sirrush (babylonian dragons). It was decidated to the goddess Ishtar and was part of the Babylonian processional way and the city walls.

I tried to keep both the actual colors and the bas reliefs of the aurchos and sirrush as close to the real thing as possible, using photographs and artbooks for reference.
As an SL object it has a land impact of 8 and uses sculpted details for the crowning of the gate. Its walkable and features proper collision (combination of prims, convex hulls and non collision prims), so your avatar can move around or stand on the gate towers properly.

Enjoy!
