Ziggurats were structures found at the center of each large city in Mesopotamia.
It was a tradition started by the Sumerians to build these structures, but other civilizations built similar steep, pyramid-like structures.

The word Mesopotamia means "the land between the rivers." Do you know what two rivers the are near the Fertile Crescent? The two rivers that formed this fertile land would often overflow and fine mud called silt remained behind. The silt would help the plants grow and thrive.
Ancient Mesopotamia is often referred to as the "Cradle of Civilization." This area is now current day Iraq, southwestern Iran, southeastern Turkey, and northeastern Syria. Mesopotamia is the name used for the area between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers. These flow into the Persian Gulf. This land was once great for agriculture. This is where people first gathered in large cities, developed wedge-shaped writing called cuneiform, and formed governments.
