In this Very Short Introduction, Karen Radner sketches the history of Assyria from city state to empire, from the early 2nd millennium BC to the end of the 7th century BC. Since the archaeological rediscovery of Assyria in the mid-19th century, its cities have been excavated extensively in Iraq, Syria, Turkey and Israel, with further sites in Iran, Lebanon, and Jordan providing important information. The Assyrian Empire was one of the most geographically vast, socially diverse, multicultural, and multi-ethnic states of the early first millennium BC. Using archaeological records, Radner provides insights into the lives of the inhabitants of the kingdom, highlighting the diversity of human experiences in the Assyrian Empire. 651 0 $a Assyria $x Antiquities. 651 0 $a Assyria $x History. 651 7 $a Assyrien $2 gnd 650 7 $a Antiquities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00810745 651 7 $a Middle East $z Assyria. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01220876 651 4 $a Middle East $z Assyria. 651 4 $a Assyria $v History. 651 4 $a Assyria $v Antiquities. 830 0 $a Very short introductions ; $v 424. 856 42 $3 The George Clapp Vaillant Book Fund Home Page $u http://hdl.library.upenn.edu/1017.12/366287 941 $a 2 952 $l ORAX826 $d 20211203010147.0 952 $l CEAX572 $d 20200508021644.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B8472E6890F111EA86A69E4897128E48 994 $a 92 $b UINInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
