The story of the Tower of Babel and of the confounding of the languages is more than just a myth invented by someone trying to explain the existence of multiple languages. It is an actual historical event mentioned in the histories of multiple nations. Critics have often rejected the story because of its connection to the Old Testament, while ignoring other ancient documents from other cultures where the same story is told, often in connection to the flood. The chapter before the one where this event is described in Genesis contains a listing of the descendants of Noah in a document known as the Table of Nations. In this book, those nations will be traced through history using ancient sources whenever possible. This information will be combined with the history of man as written in DNA to confirm the truth of the story.
