The Cambridge ancient history : volume 3, part 2, the Assyrian and Babylonian Empires and other states of the Near East, from the eighth to the sixth centuries BC

by John Boardman, I. Edwards, N. Hammon, E. Sollberger, C. B. F. Walker

This book examines the rise and fall of the Assyrian and Babylonian empires, the dominant Mesopotamian powers of the ancient Near East. It analyses how these vast civilisations established their dominance and the internal conflict that led to their eventual collapse.
