The remnant of Ashuruballit's army was augmented by a large and powerful Egyptian force soon after the fall of Nineveh.
The approach of the combined armies was sufficiently impressive to cause Ashuruballit and the Egyptian troops who had come to his aid to withdraw west of the Euphrates, so allowing Nabopolassar and his supporters to move in and plunder the undefended city.
Ashuruballit is never heard from again and is apparently lost to history.[4] When the Chronicle continues the historical record on another tablet (BM 22047) with the eighteenth year of Nabopolassar, the king of Akkad has turned his attention to Urartu.

In an appendix to their compendium they discuss the issue, discounting the identification with Ashuruballit I, and raising the possibility that the name should be identified with some otherwise unattested ruler, essentially the same solution we propose.
The only other Assyrian king Ashuruballit, who ruled briefly at the end of the Empire in the late 7th century, is similarly unknown from the monuments and the king lists.
And there is compelling evidence in the "geography" of the Euphrates region to suggest the reasonableness of the assumption that another Ashuruballit may have lived and ruled in that region of the country in the late 10th century.

 "Forgotten Empires" Remembered - Text
Much time and energy has been put into trying to show this Ashuruballit to be someone other than the middle-Assyrian Ashuruballit I,[14] but given that the names of his successors given in Hittite records match those of the AKL, this is rather unlikely.
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.
It is assumed that this was Ashuruballit I. Even Amir Harrak, in his study of Assyria and Hanigalbat,[31] skips from Ashuruballit I to Adad-Nirari III, passing over the intermediate reigns of Enlil-Nirari and Arik-Den-Ili with bare mentions.

Artatama sent rich presents to Ashuruballit, whilst Shuttarna destroyed the palace built by Tushratta and gave away the rich materials stored therein to the Assyrian.
Ashuruballit, notwithstanding his Assyrian name, was a Mitannian; and the so-called Middle Assyrian state he founded is but a new phase of the Mitanni/Medish [sic] rule in Assyria.
That Ashuruballit was king of Mitanni (or Hanigalbat) is in any case no secret, as he states the fact very clearly in a well-known letter to Akhnaton,

By approximately 1350 BCE, the Mitanni kingdom had weakened, and had become practically dependent on the Hittites, then under the rule of Shuppiluliuma I.
Assyria, previously under Mitannian control, was able to assert its independence during the reigns of Ashuruballit I and Mattivaza, in approximately 1330 BC.
The Mitanni appear to have been renowned in the Hittite Empire for their horsemanship, and surviving Hittite texts on horse-training and chariotry are attributed to one Kikkuli the Mitannian.

Ashuruballit, when Nineveh fell, was at once crowned king of Assyria in the city of Harran.
The army which came to help Ashuruballit was probably drawn from Syria or Egypt, and may even have come in part from Judah.
As he supplied a large army to Ashuruballit at that time, it is evident he remained faithful to Assyria as long as he lived, as did Josiah of Judah.

 Rohl (Peter)
He writes: "When we look at the Assyrian King List we see that the father of Ashur-uballit is given as Eriba-Adad whereas the Amarna Ashuruballit has a father called Ashur-nadin-ahhe.
Now it is accepted that the term 'father' can have the meaning ancestor, but as D.D. Luckenhall notes 'even so our difficulties are not all cleared up.
Ashuruballit does not include Ashur-nadin-ahhe among his ancestors, although he carries his line back six generations.'"

This also explains why Babylon was called the capital of the Chaldean Empire, and why the Babylonian armies were called the Chaldean armies (Jeremiah 37:11), while the Chaldeans did not form the population but a small fraction of reigning class (cf.
In 13th century b.c., the Assyrian strength under Ashuruballit could be overcome after the Umman-Manda (Scythians) came from the Russian steppes to the rescue, and Mursili had only to deal with the Egyptian to fight for the power of the land of the Hittitte.
Again, in 7th century b.c., the Assyrian strength under Ashuruballit was defeated after the Scythian warriors, led by "king Madyas son of Protothyas" (Herodotos I:103), came into the picture, and Nabopolassar had only to deal with the Egyptian to fight for the power of the entire land of the Hittite.
