One of them was that they could bring water from 30 miles using pipes called Aqueducts
Another one is that they had new strategies like attacking the wall over and over again
Also they made 2D forms of the kings hunting, fighting or relaxing they were called bas- relifs
THE NEO- BABYLONIAN HAD THE MOST CLEVER ACHIEVEMENTS
