Image description

The Assyrian Method of Treating the Conquered. The Assyrian conquerors of the ninth century made no attempt to consolidate a permanent empire, but confined themselves to the collection of plunder and tribute. Any city which offered opposition to their demands was ruthlessly destroyed, and its inhabitants were mutilated, impaled, or burnt at the stake. Illustration for Hutchinson's History of the Nations (Hutchinson, c.1920). Note: Image has been digitally enhanced to facilitate repro.
