==Footnotes==
'''Labashi-Marduk''', was king of [[Babylon]] (556 BCE), and son of [[Neriglissar]]. Labashi-Marduk succeeded his father when still only a boy, after the latter's four-year reign. Most likely due to his very young age, he was deemed unfit to rule, and was murdered in a [[Conspiracy (political)|conspiracy]] only nine months after his inauguration. He is traditionally listed as a king of the ''Chaldean Dynasty'', being, probably, the son of [[Neriglissar]] by his wife, who was the daughter of [[Nebuchadnezzar II|Nebuchadnezzar]]. [[Nabonidus]] was chosen next as the new king.
