  1. Alternative form of Babylonize
    • 1903, Hans Ferdinand Helmolt, The World's History, page 17:
      We may perhaps see the deeper reason in the fact that the kings and the ruling classes of the Kassites had meanwhile (after 1400) become “babylonised;” that is, that they felt, and affected to feel themselves, Babylonians.
