 Arameans - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
From 8th century BC Aramaean kingdoms were subjugated by Adad-nirari II, Ashurnasirpal II, and his son Shalmaneser III, who destroyed many of the small tribes, and gave control of Syria and local trade and natural resources to the Assyrians.
It appears from their inscriptions as well as from their names, that Aramaeans worshipped Sumero-Akkadian and Canaanite gods, such Haddad, (Adad), the storm-god, El, the supreme deity of Canaan, Sin, Ishtar (whom they called ‘Attar), the Phoenician goddess Anat (‘Atta) and others.
Though without a state, Arameans continued their presence in the Near East, where they were assimilated into the local societies.

The problem is made even worse when you realise that, though Tudkhalya (contemporary with Shalmaneser) is the son of Hattusilis III (contemporary with Adad-Nirari), there is a gap of over thirty years between the reign of the end of the reign of Adad-Nirari II and Shalmaneser III.
Tukulti-Ninurta I was the son of Shalmaneser I, whereas Tukulti-Ninurta II was grandfather of Shalmaneser III.

 Articles - Adad-nirari III
Adad-nirari III (also Adad-narari) was King of Assyria from 811 to 783 BC.
Among his actions was a siege of Damascus in the time of Ben-Hadad III in 796 BC, which led to the eclipse of the Aramaean Kingdom of Damascus and allowed the recovery of Israel under Jehoash (who paid the Assyrian king tribute at this time) and Jeroboam II.
He was the son and successor of Shamshi-Adad V, and was apparently quite young at the time of his accession, because for the first five years of his reign his mother Sammuramat acted as regent, which may have given rise to the legend of Semiramis.

Adad-Nirari III was succeeded by Shalmaneser IV (782-772 B.C.), and the latter by Asshur-Dan III (773-754 B.C.).
The policies and procedures of Tiglath-Pileser III were employed with vigor and ferocity by his successors and proved invaluable in maintaining security.
For the first time in history the idea of centralization was introduced into politics; the conquered provinces were organized under an elaborate bureaucracy at the head of which was the king, each district paying a fixed tribute and providing a military contingent.

 History
Adad-nirari II (of Assyria) later exchanged daughters in a marriage alliance with Nabu-shuma-ukin I after a battle that Adad-nirari claimed to have won.
What we do know is that, in a carving on a throne base at Kalhu from a few years later, Shalmaneser II and Marduk-zakir-shumi are shown as equals shaking or slapping hands - a rarity in Assyrian art where the Assyrian king is normally depicted as superior to everyone else.
In his account of these events, Shalmaneser does not mention Marduk-zakir-shumi and we don't know if he was acting as the overlord of the Babylonian ruler, or if everything was in fact arranged by Marduk-zakir-shumi.

 "Forgotten Empires" Remembered - Text
From Shalmaneser III to Ashur-Nirari V, the late-Assyrian kingdom declined steadily, while the middle-Assyrian record from Ashuruballit I to Tukulti-Nimrud I is one of rapid growth.
This "rebellion" was eventually quelled by Samsi-Adad V, another son of Shalmaneser, and since he entered a treaty with Babylon on apparently unequal terms, it has been concluded that he in effect submitted to Babylon in order to obtain its support against the attempted revolution.
As what are recorded by Shalmaneser III as Assyrian/Urartian conflicts are recorded by the Hittites as having been between the Hittites and Mitanni, he identified the Mitannian province of Ashtata as the Assyria of Shalmaneser III, noting a similarity between Ash-tata and Ash-shur.

Adad-nirari III was succeeded by Shalmaneser III (783-773 BC), and the latter by Assur-dan III (773-755 BC).
Determining the order of Tiglath-pileser III’s campaigns during 734-732 BC is difficult because the Assyrian inscriptions are mostly “summary inscriptions” which are imprecise and sometimes contradictory, and the few annals passages that have survived provide little help, and the biblical data are also unclear.
Tiglath-pileser III (744-727 BC), the biblical Pul, seized the throne of Assyria, at Nineveh.

 Legend of Semiramis
The extension, then, of the Assyrian borders continued during the thirteen years of Shamshi-Adad's V reign, to the east and southeast; it is clear that Adad-Nirari III succeeded in 811 to an authority unimpaired by the civil strife which had marked the last years of Shalmaneser IV (783-774 B.C.).
On a stele found in a corner of the wall of the city of Ashur, where stood two rows of slabs recording the names of monarchs and royal officials, her name is recorded as the wife of Shamshi-Adad V, the mother of Adad-Nirari III, the daughter-in-law of Shalmaneser III.
Shalmaneser I, son of Adad-Nirari II, ruled from 1274-1245 B.C. Shalmaneser II, was the successor to Tiglath-Pileser II, ruled 1031-1020 B.C. Shalmaneser III, son of Ashurnasirpal, ruled 859-824 B.C.

He was the son and successor of Shalmaneser III, the husband of Sammuramat, and the father of Adad-nirari III, who succeeded him as king.
Later in his reign, Shamshi-Adad campaigned against Southern Mesopotamia, and stipulated a treaty with the Babylonian king Marduk-zakir-shumi.
The rebellion lasted until 820 BC, which caused a weakening of the Assyrian empire and of its ruler, which would later show its consequences until the reforms of Tiglath-pileser III.

 "Babylonian Synchronisms with Assyria"
Of the Babylonian kings which have their reign lengths recorded in the BKL, the earliest synchronism in the sequence is that between Kurigalzu III and Enlil-nirari (Synchronistic History i, 18-23; although Chronicle P iii, 20-22 gives the name as Adad-nirari).
After the death of Kashtiliash III, Tukulti-Ninurta I placed Adad-shuma-usur (1221-1192 BC) on the throne of Babylon (Chronicle P iv, 7-9) and this is again theoretically possible.
As can be seen there is ample time for Kurigalzu to communicate with Enlil-nirari during his 25 year reign.
