The next question Hadley asked was actually quite hard. Ella didn't know the answer off the top of her head so she started flipping through her notes. She knew that it was some ancient place but she just couldn't think of where...Using her finger to scroll through her notes, she found it. "Professor, was it Baby-Babylonia?" That was kind of hard to say, huh? Babylonia...It sounded like a baby covered in bologna.

Okay he was rambling now. It was now time to get back to the question. What geographical location did this system come from. Well he looked at his notes and they seemed to help. "Professor, it was Babylonia" That did seem correct but Babylon sounded better in Nigel's opinion. Babylonia sounded like something you put on a sandwich.

Hadley the Points Hacker could ask the world's most difficult questions, could she not? Yet when a Puffer, a young one at that, spoke up, Sierra jerked her head in the young girl's direction. How did she know that whole Babylon--...wait.

Something triggered inside Sierra's mind. She knew this. She'd read it before, although, she couldn't imagine why she'd been reading something about Chaldean Numerology. "The southern part of Babylonia," she said, raising her hand as she added in a little extra input.

"It was the Babylonia,"she answered as she raise her hand up in the air. It was such an interesting name that she would never forget and keep it in her mind for the rest of the lessons, she guessed.

She sat there pondering it over trying to get it to come forward to come of and the urge to bash her head into the desk jumped forward yet again. Babyliona...no not liona...was that even a word? But something like that. Then it hit her. Hand shooting in the air she said, "Babylonia...in the southern part?" She wasn't entirely sure it was the southern part but it tickled her brain a little so she was probably correct somewhat.

Oh, and he definitely knew this one as well. Cue two hands in the air. "Chaldean is just a different term for saying Babylonian. The Babylonians occupied what is known as the Cradle of Civilization, which is the fertile area between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers and north of the Persian Gulf. Currently it's Iran and Iraq." Yes, he was a fountain of geographical information.

Anyways, moving on, Ira thought about the next question, and raised her hand up and answered, "Its Babylonia, professor." And made a small note again of the extra info as said by Keefer.
