The Elan people established their first kingdom three thousand years ago. They are the bridge between Persia and Sumer. This magnificent building was built by the king of Elan, Onta Higgal, when he was in office. It is to worship Susaku Built by the protection of the city. This is desolate and barren. Even in the unusually hot and humid place in winter, few people can think of a forest area that can block floods at that time. A rich temple is a tower of five concentric towers. The innermost and highest one is 50 meters above the ground. The length of the bottom is 1200 meters, only the bottom three shelves are still well preserved. When you look down, you can’t see the formed brick wall, but the clay pile. In the middle of the temple, the bricks are made of bricks, and the towers are made of kiln bricks. The towers are a row of vaulted huts with steps leading to higher levels. The floor originally had a comprehensive building system of rooms, tombs, underground passages and waterways, and two temples dedicated to the gods were built in the southeast. The tower temple is surrounded by paved courtyards, backed by residential areas. Because of improper protection, only three simple but well-built ruins, the king’s sleeping hall, the harem and the palace’s gates can be seen here. When tourists walk around the temple, they can find the cuneiform characters inscribed on the wall and on the bricks. Conical inlay and glazed tiles in the ancient Middle East, there was a custom of worshiping mountains.
