Alexander the Great captured the island city of Tyre in 332 BCE during his campaign against the Persian Empire. He constructed a causeway, or mole, extending from the mainland to the island, allowing his forces to approach and besiege the heavily fortified city.

This victory solidified Alexander's control over the eastern Mediterranean and showcased his military ingenuity.
