The noted tower setting is the Tower of BABEL, which is a structure mentioned in the Bible. According to the Bible, it was built by a unified humanity as a symbol of their strength and unity, but God destroyed it in order to prevent them from becoming too powerful. The Tower of BABEL has become a symbol of human ambition and hubris, and is often used to represent the idea that humans are capable of great things, but can also be easily brought down by their own pride.
