The. Romance of Mother Earth
Today's Installment—(3$)
The Assyrians a Nation of Warriors
Higher up the Tijrls. above tbe
clay lands and with easy supplies
of workable stone, a Semitic peo-
ple, the Assyrians, while tbe Su-
merlans wen- still unconquered by
the Semites, were settling about a
number of cities of which Assur
and Nineveh were the chief. Their
peculiar physiognomy, the long
nose and thick lips, was very like
that of the commoner typo of Pol-
ish Jew today. They wore great
beards and ring letted long hair, tall
caps and long robe*.
First to Use the Horse and Chariot.
They were constantly engaged in
mutual raiding with the Hittites to
the west; they were conquered by
Sargon I. and became free again;
a certain Tuahratta, King of Mltan-
wl, to the northwest, captured and
held their capital, Nineveh, for a
Urn*; they iutrigued with ISgypt
against Babylon and were in the
pay of Egypt; they developed tho
military art to a very high pitch,
and became mighty raiders and ex-
Rctcrs of tribute; and at last,
adopting the horse and the war
chariot they settled accounts for a
time with the Hittites. and then,
under Tiglath Pileser I., conquered
Babylon for themselves (about
1.100 B.C.).
But their hold on the lower,
older and more civilized land was
not secure, and Nineveh, the stone
city, aa distinguished from Baby-
lon, the brick city, remained their
capital. For many conturies power
swayed between Nineveh and Baby-
lon. and aometlmes it was an As-
syrian and sometimes a Babylonian
who claimed to be "king of the
world."
For four centuries Assyria was
restrained from expansion toward
Egypt by a fresh northward thrust
and settlement of another group of
Semitic peoples, the Arameans,
whose chief city was Damascun and
whose descendants are the Syrians
of today (There is. wr may note,
no connection whatever between
the words Assyrian und Syrian. It
is an accidental similarity). Across
these Syrians th« Assyrian kings
fought for power and expansion
southwestward.
Deportation of the "Lost Tribes"
of Israel.
In 745 B.C. arose another Tig
lath Pileser. Tiglath Pileser III.
the Tiglath Pileser of the Bible.
He not only directed the transfer
of the Israelites to Media (the
"Lost Ten Tribes'* whose ultimate
fate has exercised so many curious
minds) but he conquered and ruled
Babylon, so founding what histor-
ians know as the New Assyrian
Empire. Ills son, Shalmaneser IV..
died during the siege of Samaria
and wns succeeded by a usurper.

Egypt. There Sennacherib's army
was smitten by a pestilence, a dis-
aster described in the nineteenth
chapter of the Second Book of
Kings.
"And It came to pass that night,
that tho angel of the l^ord went
out. and smote in the camp of the
Assyrians an hundred fourscore
and Ave thousand; and when they
arose early in the morning, behold
they were all dead corpses. So
Sennacherib king of Assyria de-
parted, and went and returned, and
dwelt at Nineveh."

The Assyrian empire lasted only
150 years after Saigon II. Fresh
nomadic Semites com in* from the
southeast, tho Chaldeans, assisted
by i wo Aryan-speaking peoples
from the north, tho Medea and Per-
sians, combined against it and took
Nineveh la 60t B. C.
The Chaldean Empire, with its
ish. they interbreed and are lost,
tho Assyrian melts away into Chal-
dean and Syrian, the Hittites be-
come Aryanized and lose distinc-
tion, the Semites who swallowed up
the Sumerians give pluce to Aryan
rulers, Modes and Persians appear
in tho place of the Elamites. the
Arynn Persian language dominates
the empire until the Aryan Greek I
ousts it from official life.
The Vital Powers of Civilization, j
Meanwhile the plow does its work
year by year, the harvests are j
gathered, the builders build us they
aro told, the tradesmen work and I
acquire fresh devices; the kuowl-!
edge of writing spreads, novel j
things, the horse and wheeled ve-
hicles and iron, aro introduced and j
become part of the permanent in- ,
heritauce of mankind; the volume
of trade upon sea and desert in-
creases, men's idens widen and
knowledge grows. There are set-
backs. massacres, pestilence: but
the story is, 011 the whole, one of
enlargement.
For four thousand years this new
thing, civilization, which has set its
root Into the soli of the two rivers,
grow as a tree grows; now losing
a limb, now stripped by a storm,
but always growing and resuming
its growth. After four thousand
years the warriors and conquerors
were still going to and fro over this
growing thing they did not under-
stand. but men hod now <330 B. C.)
got iron, horses, writing and com-
putation, money, a greater variety
of foods and textiles, a wider
knowledge of their world.
The time that elapsed between
the empire of Sargon I. and the
conquest of Babylon by Alexander
tho Great wa" so long, be it noted,
at the least estimate, as the time
from Alexander tbe Great to the
present day. And before the time
of Sargon, men had been settled

Such shiftings about of popula-
