Whats the legacy of the Chaldeans?
The Chaldeans left us many traditions, but you'll experience one of them every time you check the time, because the 60-minute hour and the 24-hour day are their inventions. They're also partly responsible for the 7-day week (the Hebrews hallowed it, but the Chaldeans used it first) and the 360-degree circle. If you're wondering how their contemporaries, the Egyptians, told time, they used a 10-day week and a 10-hour day with 100 minutes to the hour. About 200 years ago, the French tried to go back to telling time the Egyptian way, but it didn't work out.

Why might the Chaldeans have decided to send so many Israelites to live in Babylon?
The Chaldeans adopted the Assyrian system of control of conquered peoples, of exchanging aristocraices between different areas, so the ruling aristocracy was unsympathetic to the locals and would not tolerate uprisings. The Assyrians had previously exported the aristocracy of the 10 northern tribes of Israel to Assyria and brought in a new one from there to rule them. Now the same thing happened to the upper classes of Judah and Benjamin in the south - sent by the Chaldeans to rule around Babylon, with a new foreign ruling class moved in to replace them.
