Vintage illustration of Siege of Tyre, 10th Century Art. Taken from the Commentary of Haymon, Bishop of Halberstadt, on the Book of Ezekiel. (Bibl. Jmp N: 308 from the late collection of Germain.) The siege of Tyre was waged by Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon for 13 years from 586 to 573 BC. The siege of Tyre, in Phoenicia, has a significant connection to the Book of Ezekiel where it was mentioned that the city had fallen to Babylonian forces after a years-long siege.
