Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Other Шаблон:Infobox royalty Amytis of Babylon (c. 630-565 BCE; Median: Шаблон:Transl; Ancient Greek: Шаблон:Lang-grc; Шаблон:Lang-la)Шаблон:Sfn[1] was a Queen of Ancient Babylon. She was the daughter of the Median king Cyaxares, and the wife of Nebuchadnezzar II.
Name
The female name Шаблон:Transl is the Latinised form of the Greek name Шаблон:Transl (Шаблон:Lang), which perhaps may reflect (with vowel metathesis) an original Median name Шаблон:Transl, meaning "having good thought," and which is an equivalent of the Avestan term Шаблон:Transl (Шаблон:Lang).Шаблон:Sfn[1]
Life
Amytis was the daughter of Cyaxares, and the sister of Astyages.[2] Amytis had a niece, also named Amytis, from her brother Astyages.Шаблон:Sfn
Amytis married Nebuchadnezzar to formalize the alliance between the Babylonian and Median dynasties.
Hanging Gardens of Babylon
Tradition relates that Amytis' yearning for the forested mountains of Media led to the construction of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, as Nebuchadnezzar attempted to please her by planting the trees and plants of her homeland.[3] Historical evidence, however, does not lend support to this tradition.
