The Very Short Introductions Podcast
The Diversity of Ancient Assyria
The best job you could have as a scholar was in the entourage of the king as one of his advisors. The king needed the scholars to help him steer the country and especially drew on their expertise in order to make decisions. In the seventh century Assyrian society is very, very diverse. You can check out the Assyrian collections of say the British Museum, the Louvre and Paris or the Metropolitan Museum in New York. Do have a look at some artworks and see whether you can relate to me finding Assyrian culture endlessly fascinating. Goodbye.
