Adad-nirari III - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 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's youth, and the struggles his father had faced early in his reign, caused a serious weakening for the Assyrian rulership over Mesopotamia, and gave way to the ambitions of the most high officers, the governors and the local rulers. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Adad-nirari_III   (246 words)

Shalmaneser III - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Civil war continued for two years; but the rebellion was at last crushed by Shamshi-Adad V, another son of Shalmaneser. He had built a palace at Calah, and left several editions of the royal annals recording his military campaigns, the last of which is engraved on the Black Obelisk from Calah. In the following year, age required the king to hand over the command of his armies to the Tartan (turtānu commander-in-chief) Dayyan-Assur, and six years later, Nineveh and other cities revolted against him under his rebel son Assur-danin-pal. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Shalmaneser_III   (370 words)

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.). It is apparently within reason to believe that the name Sammu-ramat is the archetype of Semiramis the Greek legend, and is in fact, the exaggerated accounts of the achievements of Semiramis and Ninus; there may be an echo of the times of the regency of Sammu-ramat and of the reign of her son. Apparently Shalmaneser V died or was murdered during the siege and his successor Sargon completed the conquest of the city. www.earth-history.com /Babylon/bab-legend-semiramis.htm   (4740 words)

"Forgotten Empires" Remembered - Text If Shamshi-Adad V rebelled, taking control of the capitol in his brother's fourth year, and finishing off the last of the resistance in his fifth or sixth, we would probably be faced with exactly the evidence we have now. Shamshi-Adad V would be in a position to justify himself by painting his late brother as the rebel. We may see Shamshi-Adad V's campaign against Babylon as an attempt to assert his independance, or a defensive war after an attempt to renege on the treaty. www.starways.net /lisa/essays/mitanni.html   (7113 words)

History, culture, heritage of Iraq! Its massive city walls and 'hanging gardens', attributed by classical tradition to Semiramis, wife of Shamshi-Adad V (823-811 BC) Semiramis: Semi-legendary Queen of Assyria, the wife of Ninus, with whom she is supposed to have founded Babylon. The historical germ of the story seems to be the three years' regency of Sammu-ramat (811-808 BC), widow of Shamshi-Adad V, but the details are legendary, derived from Ctesias and the Greek historians, with elements of the Astarte myth. Semi-subterranean vaulted rooms provided with hydraulic lifting gear in the later Palace of Nebuchadnezzar (604-562 BC) have been claimed as remains of the gardens, but their site is not definitely known. www.iraqipapers.com /mesopotamia.htm   (2617 words)

Living in Truth by Charles N.Pope - Chapter 32:"The Fairest of Them All"(Queen Nefertari and her Firstborn Amen-hir-khopshef/Osorkon III) The primary Libyan dynasts in the reign of Ramses II were Osorkon III and Sheshonq V. Although Sheshonq V died in Year 55 of Ramses II, his son Ramses/Tefnakht inherited his title and remained dominant in the Western Delta as a Libyan pharaoh. Tuya passed away around Year 22 of her son Ramses II, but was replaced as God's Wife by Nefertari upon the death of Seti I. Tuya was best remembered outside Egypt as the legendary queen Sammu-ramat/Semi-ramis, who acted as regent for her young son in Assyria.
