 Nabataea: Who were the Nabataeans
The ancient records of Tiglathpilezeer III list, among the rebels, the Hagaranu (perhaps the descendants of Hagar, the mother of Ishmael), the Nabatu (perhaps the Nabataeans, descendants of Nebayoth, the son of Ishmael) and the tribe of Qedar.
In 652 BC conflict broke out between these two brothers, and in support of the Babylonian king, the Qedarites invaded western Assyria, were defeated, and fled to Natnu the leader of the Nabayat for safety; as described in the records of Esarhaddan.
Chang Ch'ien, envoy to the Chinese Emperor Wu-ti, (138-122 BC) as well as in the records of the civilizations of Greece, Egypt, Rome, and Byzantium where the city was known by its Roman name, Petra.

 Isaiah, 1-7 (International Standard Bible Encyclopedia) :: Bible Tools
In any case Isaiah probably survived the great catastrophe of the siege of Jerusalem by Sennacherib in 701 BC, and possibly also the death of Hezekiah in 699 BC; for in 2 Chronicles 32:32 it is stated that Isaiah wrote a biography of King Hezekiah.
Hoshea, the vacillating puppet-king of North Israel (730-722 BC), encouraged by Egypt, refused longer to pay Assyria his annual tribute (2 Kings 17:4); whereupon Shalmaneser IV, who had succeeded Tiglath-pileser, promptly appeared before the gates of Samaria in 724 BC, and for 3 weary years besieged the city (2 Kings 17:5).
Finally, the city was captured by Sargon II, who succeeded Shalmaneser IV in 722 BC, and 27,292 of Israel's choicest people (according to Sargon's own description) were deported to Assyria, and colonists were brought from Babylon and other adjacent districts and placed in the cities of Samaria (2 Kings 17:6, 2 Kings 17:24).

 The Burden of Babylon
In 745 BC, Tiglath-pileser III ascended the throne of Assyria and revitalized the Assyrian empire, meaning, he expanded the empire by conquest.
By 740 BC he had annexed northern and southern Syria, and by 734 BC the coastal Philistines.
The next account is that of Hezekiah's illness, which took place 15 years before he died (his life was spared and extended by 15 years, 2 Kings 20:1-11), and so must have taken place about the same time as Sennacherib's first attack, presumably shortly afterwards.
