200,000

It has been estimated that Babylon was the largest city in the world from c. 1770 to 1670 BC, and again between c. 612 and 320 BC. It was perhaps the first city to reach a population above 200,000.

As it was a major metropolitan centre at the time, My estimate would be around 300-500,000 people.
