  We learn from Berosus that Nebuchadnezzar sent several

  transplanted others to Pontus; and it is probable, that at

  after, Cyrus permitted them to return to their native
  country.

  Nebuchadnezzar was thirteen years employed in the siege.
  During this long siege, the soldiers must have endured great
  hardships; their heads would become bald by constantly
  wearing their helmets; and their shoulders be peeled by
  carrying materials to and from the works.

- yet.
  St. Jerome asserts, on the authority of the Assyrian
  histories, that when the Tyrians saw their city must fall,
  they put their most valuable effects on board their ships,
  and fled with them to the islands, and their colonies, "so
  that, the city being taken, Nebuchadnezzar found nothing
  worthy of his labor."
