The Ziggurat of Ur was designed as a multi-level, stepped platform, a common feature of ziggurats in Mesopotamia. This tiered structure consists of three main levels, each one smaller than the one beneath it, creating a pyramid-like appearance with a flat top.

The Ziggurat of Ur Nammu was dedicated to the Moon god Nanna and was most likely built on top of an earlier proto-type platform or staged tower dating to the Early Dynastic periods. Its construction can be positively dated back to the reigns of the Third Dynastic kings, Ur-Nammu (2112–2095 BCE) and Shulgi (2095–2047 BCE).
