Maspero is a comprehensive historical account likely written in the late 19th century. This volume focuses on the Assyrian revival and the geopolitical landscape of the Near East, particularly detailing the reign of significant Assyrian kings like Assur-nazir-pal and Shalmaneser III. The narrative covers military tactics, political relationships, and cultural influences, analyzing Assyrian conquests and their impact on neighboring regions such as Babylon and various Syrian states. The opening of the text establishes a framework for understanding the political and military dynamics of the ancient Near East during the periods of Assur-nazir-pal and Shalmaneser III. It details the Assyrian state's recovery from previous crises and its strategies for reasserting dominance over surrounding territories, highlighting significant military campaigns against areas like Urartu and Northern Syria. The text introduces early rulers following a period of obscurity and discusses various tactics employed, such as cavalry and siege engines, reflecting the Assyrian innovations in warfare. The passage sets a tone of both detailed historical recounting and analysis of the continuous struggles for power among the great empires of the time.
