In an attempt to justify yet another general introduction to the era,1 this paper will also discuss two items to which some minor novel contribution can be made.

From Karkemiš to Rapiqu: The Assyrians in the Euphrates Valley in the 13th century Aline Tenu * RES Antiquitatis 2 (2020): 132-160 Abstract The Euphrates Valley was a scene of rivalries between the Hittites, Babylonians and Assyrians throughout the 13 th century BCE. The Assyrians developed several strategies to control the valley through the establishment of governors or the creation of small settlements. Shalmaneser I was very active upstream of the confluence on the Habur, while the Middle Euphrates came into the Assyrian sphere during the reign of Tukulti-Ninurta I. Analysis of the available literature invites a multi-level approach to separate local events from matters affecting the geopolitical balance of the states.

Wien, 2012 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 384 Studienrichtung lt. Studienblatt: Altsemitische Philologie und orientalische Archäologie Betreuerin: Ass.-Prof. Mag. Dr. Marta Luciani, Privatdoz. 3 Kurzfassung Die vorliegende Arbeit bietet einen allgemeinen Überblick, hinsichtlich der Strukturen und architektonischen Merkmale städtischer Anlagen im Kernland Mesopotamien. Im Fokus stehen dabei Fundorte mit urbanen Befunden aus dem zweiten vorchristlichen Jahrtausend. Anhand einer umfassenden Quellenanalyse werden unter anderem funktionale Aspekte von Städten herausgearbeitet und einander gegenüber gestellt. Vor diesem Hintergrund können Städte als eine von geografisch-historischen Faktoren abhängige Einheit, die als Zentrum sesshafter Gesellschaftsstrukturen politische, kulturelle, soziale und/oder militärische Funktionen erfüllt und entsprechende architektonische Elemente (Mauern, Straßen, öffentliche Gebäude und Privathäuser) aufweist, definiert werden. Abstract The thesis presents a general overview, concerning the structures and architectonic characteristics of urban establishements, within the heart of mesopotamia. In the focus are sites, that contain urban findings of the 2nd millennium B.C.. Functional aspects of cities are expressed and compared, by means of extensive source analysis. Thus cities can be definied as single units,

  • Babil Governorate

    Babil Governorate

    Babil Governorate Babil; Akkadian: Bābili(m);[1] Sumerian ,بابل :Babylon (Arabic :Bābel; Greek ,בבל :logogram: KÁ.DINGIR.RAKI Hebrew Βαβυλών, Babylōn) was an Akkadian city-state (founded in 1867 BC by an Amorite dynasty) of ancient Mesopotamia, the remains of which are found in present-day Al Hillah, Babil Province, Iraq, about 85 kilometers (55 mi) south of Baghdad. Babylon, along with Assyria to the north, was one of the two Akkadian nations that evolved after the collapse of the Akkadian Empire, although it was rarely ruled by native Akkadians. All that remains of the original ancient famed city of Babylon today is a mound, or tell, of broken mud-brick buildings and debris in the fertile Mesopotamian plain between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. The city itself was built upon the Euphrates, and divided in equal parts along its left and right banks, with steep embankments to contain the river's seasonal floods. Available historical resources suggest that Babylon was at first a small town which had sprung up by the beginning of the 3rd millennium BC. The town flourished and attained independence with the rise of the First Amorite Babylonian Dynasty in 1894 BC. Claiming to be the successor of the ancient Eridu, Babylon eclipsed Nippur as the "holy city" of Mesopotamia around the time an Amorite king named Hammurabi first created the short lived Babylonian Empire; this quickly dissolved upon his death and Babylon spent long periods under Assyrian, Kassite and Elamite domination. Babylon again became the seat of the Neo- Babylonian Empire from 612 to 539 BC which was founded by Chaldeans and whose last king was an Assyrian.

Incremented con­ siderably in number by the ongoing excavations at Terqa. they shed light on an important period of ancient Syrian history. corresponding to the Late Old Baby­ lonian period. But more important than the philological construct conveyed by the Khana tablets is the historical construct of the kingdom of Khana. of which first Mari and then Terqa was the capital. This article outlines the unique and hitherto unrecognized geopolitical configuration of the region of Khana. and it shows why' Khana after the fall of Mari did not become a petty local kingdom. Documentation is given for a proposed sequential order of the II kings who ruled Khana in the second quarter of the second millennium B.C., based on stratigraphic and textual considerations. Finally. a case is made for a pattern ofurban-rural interaction, that was unique to Khana society within the whole ancient Near East. THE TABLETS text was acquired through purchase and because it was published with a group of Babylonian texts. ablet for tablet, the epigraphic harvest in Several other texts of the same type were Syrian archaeology has been extraordinary; published subsequently.
