On the banks of the Tigris, among the stars of the kings of Assyria, an inscription preserves the name of a woman: Sammu-ramat. A few lines carved into the stone are the beginning of a story that would span millennia. In legends, she becomes Semiramis, the queen to whom cities, conquests and the wonders of Babylon were attributed. But who was the woman behind this name? This evening, we travel through ancient Mesopotamia and trace the boundary between Assyrian testimonies, Greek stories and later traditions. Leave the day behind and listen, in silence, how a little-known life turned into an endless legend.
⚠️ Note: This video is for informational and relaxing purposes. The story of Semiramis combines historical testimonies and legendary traditions, presented distinctly in the narrative. The details of the atmosphere are narrative reconstructions. For more in-depth information, consult the sources and specialized works.
