In 647 BCE, the Assyrian king Ashurbanipal ordered the systematic destruction of Susa, the ancient capital of Elam. This episode explores the geopolitical rivalry between Assyria and Elam, the war that led to Susa's sack, and the archaeological evidence that confirms the brutal campaign. We discuss Ashurbanipal's own inscriptions describing the devastation, the role of the Elamite king Teumman, and how the fall of Susa reshaped the balance of power in Mesopotamia. We also touch on the legacy of this event in later Persian memory. An episode about imperial violence, archaeological discovery, and the fragility of great cities. #Ashurbanipal #Susa #Elam #Assyria #Mesopotamia #AncientIraq #Khuzestan #Teumman #Urtak #Nineveh #AssyrianEmpire #Achaemenid #SackofSusa #Archaeology #History #FexingoHistory #MiddleEast #AncientWarfare Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
