There were many peoples that were taken to Babylon.

It was the policy of the Babylonian Empire to take very smart people from all conquered societies to Babylon to be trained to become Babylonians. The process usually stripped them of their religion and other cultural links; as they were separated from family and friends, forced to learn and use only the Chaldean language, and exposed to the grandeur of the Babylonian civilization.
