Who built the tower of Babel in the city of Babylon?

The Tower of Babel was built by the descendants of Noah, as described in The Bible's Book of Genesis. They sought to construct a tower that reached the heavens in order to make a name for themselves and prevent being scattered across the earth. This act of defiance against God's will led to the confusion of their language, causing them to be dispersed. The story serves as a cautionary tale about pride and unity against divine authority.
