		If in fact they were subsequently awarded specific compensation as Curtius and Diodorus record, it is possible that one of the official court reporters or independent literati accompanying Alexander's main army, smelling a human-interest story, interviewed the protagonists and reconstructed the debate within weeks of its occurrence.

	"Tyre" by Robert I Bradshaw

		The Tyrians had good reasons for their confidence: Alexander’s navy was some distance away (Rufus, 4.2.15) and so to take the island by force would require the construction of an artificial causeway, called a mole (see Figure 1).
		The Tyrians had now lost their superiority on the water, and some began to evacuate their wives and children (Rufus, 4.3.20), while others resorted to human sacrifices to the gods (Rufus, 4.3.23).
