a speculation 

A Radical View That Is Consistent With History 

A reasonable explanation.  An unsettled mystery.  Who, When, What, and Why?  Especially the Why but the Who might explain all the others.  John the Baptist preparing the way for the Way, the Truth, and the Light.  The first coming.  The Lamb of God.  The time was near for this prophecy.

a mystery 

A Babylon The Great 

A capital of a Christian empire that lasted a thousand years.  Constantinople alone has all the characteristics:  many waters 17:1, mystery 17:5, seven hills 17:9, trade 18:11, it has fallen, fallen 18:2, and it can be found no more at all 18:21.  Does it have seven heads and ten horns?  We shall see.
