What year was the tower of babel built?

The Tower of Babel is a biblical narrative found in Genesis 11:1-9, and it is not historically dated to a specific year. Traditionally, it is thought to have been built after the Great Flood, during the time when humanity was unified with one language. Scholars suggest it may reflect the construction of ziggurats in ancient Mesopotamia, particularly around the time of the Babylonian Empire, which flourished from the 18th to 6th centuries BCE. However, as a mythological account, its exact dating remains uncertain.
