Reviews
"Faust has written a comprehensive and insightful study, well illustrated with several maps. It provides the specialist and the wider public with a detailed analysis and explicit interpretations of the evidence. This publication is currently the best summary of the Assyrian era in the southern Levant and will stimulate the ongoing debate and the research of this important period." -- Gunnar Lehmann, Journal of Eastern Mediterranean Archaeology and Heritage Studies, "Written primarily from an archaeological point of view, this book offers an excellent summary of the key data used by different scholars to offer rival interpretations of Assyria's impact on each main site in the Southwest Levant." -- Lucas G. Freire, Classical Review "Faust's book is a major contribution to the field of the history of Israel and Judah in the eighth and seventh centuries, and will probably become a standard work for Biblical scholars and Assyriologists. Furthermore, it is highly recommendable for students in all branches of Biblical studies, so that they may learn how scientific knowledge is achieved in this field." -- Ariel M. Bagg, Ruprecht-Karls Universität Heidelberg, Journal of Near Eastern Studies "Wise vassals will pay tribute to acquire this volume." -- MARK A. AWABDY, Journal for the Study of the Old Testament "Faust has provided a thoroughly researched and detailed study of the incursion and impact of Assyria on the Southwest Levant in the eighth and seventh centuries BCE, shedding light on and raising questions about this period of Biblical history. He has made a viable contribution to not only encourage the study of this period of Biblical history, but has also provided a wealth of material in both his notes and bibliography to encourage scholars and students to plunge into the subject and to pursue it even further as academic curiosity and the urge toward inquiry inspires them." -- Kenneth R. Cooper, Near East Archaeological Society "Faust has written a comprehensive and insightful study, well illustrated with several maps.

This publication is currently the best summary of the Assyrian era in the southern Levant and will stimulate the ongoing debate and the research of this important period." -- Gunnar Lehmann, Journal of Eastern Mediterranean Archaeology and Heritage Studies "Biblical descriptions, combined with spectacular archaeological discoveries over the past two centuries, provide a good understanding of the period." -- Etienne Nodet, Revue Biblique, "Faust has provided a thoroughly researched and detailed study of the incursion and impact of Assyria on the Southwest Levant in the eighth and seventh centuries BCE, shedding light on and raising questions about this period of Biblical history.

Synopsis
Using one of the world's richest archaeological datasets, Avraham Faust reconstructs the outcomes of the Assyrian conquest in the southwestern region of the empire. In doing so, he sheds new light on the nature of Assyrian domination and the transformations of the diverse political and ecological zones the imperial take-over brought in its wake., The Neo-Assyrian empire -- the first large empire of the ancient world -- has attracted a great deal of public attention ever since the spectacular discoveries of its impressive remains in the 19th century. The southwestern part of this empire, located in the lands of the Bible, is archaeologically speaking the best known region in the world, and its history is described in a plethora of texts, including the Hebrew Bible. Using a bottom-up approach, Avraham Faust utilises this unparalleled information to reconstruct the outcomes of the Assyrian conquest of the region and how it impacted the diverse political units and ecological zones that comprised it. In doing so, he draws close attention to the transformations the imperial take-over brought in its wake. His analysis reveals the marginality of the annexed territories in the southwest as the empire focused its activities in small border areas facing its prospering clients. A comparison of this surprising picture to the information available from other parts of the empire suggests that the distance of these provinces from the imperial core is responsible for their fate. This sheds new light on factors influencing imperial expansion, the considerations leading to annexation, and the imperial methods of control, challenging old conventions about the development of the Assyrian empire and its rule. Faust also examines the Assyrian empire within the broader context of ancient Near Eastern imperialism to answer larger questions on the nature of Assyrian domination, the reasons for its harsh treatment of the distant provinces, and the factors influencing the limits of its reach. His findings highlight the historical development of imperial control in antiquity and the ways in which later empires were able to overcome similar limitations, paving the way to much larger and longer-lasting polities., The Neo-Assyrian empire -- the first large empire of the ancient world -- has attracted a great deal of public attention ever since the spectacular discoveries of its impressive remains in the 19th century.
