Episode 13 - The Lachish Reliefs
Update: 2023-05-13
Description
Lachish was an ancient Judean city in the Shephelah or lowland, fiercely walled and built on a mound. After Jerusalem, it was the second most important city in the Kingdom of Judah. As a result, Sennacherib made Lachish a special target during his sweeping conquest of Judea. In 732 B.C.E., Assyrian King Sennacherib assaulted Lachish. Is there archaeological proof that King Sennacherib besieged Lachish? Indeed. Sennacherib memorialized his triumphant military campaign against Lachish in a set of wall reliefs that adorned one of his palaces at Nineveh.
