rdfs:comment	The Hanging Gardens of Babylon is an ancient location, and is one of the seven ancient wonders. It also housed one of the pieces of the Golden Capstone. Few people are aware that the derogatory use of the word 'hanging', referring to a person who is particularly ugly or sexually unattractive, actually originated in Babylonia. The word was used to describe a family of Horticulturalists in Babylon who were descended from an illicit crossing between an acne-scarred 16 year old Babylonian male and a particularly attractive can of tuna. The resulting offspring spawned a race of Gardeners so horrifying in appearance; they were commonly mistaken for 'scousers'. Whenever they ventured away from their native lands passers by would often remark "Look, its those 'anging gardeners from Babylon!". The myth was born.

abstract	Few people are aware that the derogatory use of the word 'hanging', referring to a person who is particularly ugly or sexually unattractive, actually originated in Babylonia.

The resulting offspring spawned a race of Gardeners so horrifying in appearance; they were commonly mistaken for 'scousers'. Whenever they ventured away from their native lands passers by would often remark "Look, its those 'anging gardeners from Babylon!". The myth was born. This explanation has been condemned by many historians as to its authenticity. I put it to them. In my life time I have seen many a sexually unattractive gardener and not once have I come across a mythical garden built by an imaginary Babylonian King for his equally imaginary sick wife. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon is an ancient location, and is one of the seven ancient wonders. It also housed one of the pieces of the Golden Capstone.
