May I add:

Cyaxares II may be the product of Xenophon's imagination (c. 350 B.C.). He
is known to
have fictionalized his exploits among the Persians. Cyaxares II appears in
no other
ancient histories except those after Xenophon. All who believe that Cyaxares
II is the
Darius of Dan. 5:31 quote Xenophon and reject Herodotus (c. 475 B.C.).
