burden . Tyre , whose destruction by Nebuchadnezzar is here foretold , was a city of Phoenicia , on the shore of the Mediterranean , twenty-four miles south of Sidon , and thirty-two north of Accho or Ptolemais , according to the Antonine and Jerusalem Itineraries , about latitude 33 degrees 18 minutes north , longitude 35 degrees 10 minutes east. There were two cities of this name; one on the continent called Pale Tyrus , or Old Tyre , according to Strabo , thirty stadia south of the other , which was situated on an island , not above 700 paces from the main land , says Pliny. Old Tyre was taken by Nebuchadnezzar , after a siege of thirteen years , bc 573 , which he so utterly destroyed , that it never afterwards rose higher than a village. But previous to this , the inhabitants had removed their effects to the island which afterwards became so famous by the name of Tyre , though now consisting only of about 800 dwellings.
