Answer:

The word which means an 'ancient temple' in the shape of a 'pyramid' built in 'stepped levels' was a Ziggurat.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A fortress-like structure called Ziggurat was found built in every major city of the 'ancient Mesopotamian'.
  • This structure was roughly shaped like a pyramid and was built in stone blocks and baked bricks.
  • It is believed that the Babylonians of the ancient Mesopotamia built these structures in the honor of their Gods.
  • The Babylonians are believed to have taken cover on these Ziggurats in events of heavy flooding.
