قائمة الملوك الآشوريين جـُمـِّعت من قائمة ملوك آشور، وهي مملكة وإمبراطورية قديمة سامية أكادية في شمال بلاد الرافدين (شمال العراق حالياً) مع اضافة معلومات من اكتشافات أثرية حديثة. وتضم قائمة الملوك الآشوريين فترات الحكم التي يبدو أنها مبنية على قوائم ليمـّو ضاعت الآن (تسرد أسماء المسؤولين ذوي ألقاب النسب لكل سنة). فترات الحكم تلك تتسق جيداً مع قوائم الملوك الحيثيين، البابليين والفراعنة وكذلك مع السجل الأثري، وتُعتبر موثوق بها لهذا العصر.[3]

قبل اكتشاف الألواح المسمارية التي تسرد الملوك الآشوريين القدماء، لم يكن لدى الباحثين قبل القرن 19 الميلادي سوى قائمتين للملوك الآشوريين، إحداهما في تأريخ يوسبيوس من قيصرية المسمى خرونيكون (ح. 325 م)، والذي يوجد منه نسختان[4] وثانياً قائمة موجودة في Excerpta Latina Barbari.

كما تم اكتشاف قائمة غير كاملة تذكر 16 ملكاً آشورياً في أدبيات سكستوس يوليوس أفريكانوس. كما وصلتنا شظايا قوائم للملوك الآشوريين كتبها يونانيون ورومان، مثل قطسياس من كنيدوس (ح. 400 ق.م.) المؤلف الروماني كاستور من رودس (القرن الأول ق.م.) والمؤرخ الروماني كفاليون (القرن الأول الميلادي).

ومنذ اكتشاف وفك شفرة السجلات المسمارية، فإن تلك القوائم "بعد المسمارية" للملوك الآشوريين لم تعد تُعتبر موثوق بها أو حقيقية، إلا أنها قد تتضمن حقائق تاريخية صغرى تراكم إفسادها على مر القرون. بل يجادل بعض الباحثين أن تلك القوائم هي محض اختراع أو خيال.

The ancient Assyrians did not believe that their king was divine himself, but saw their ruler as the vicar of their principal deity, Ashur, and as his chief representative on Earth. In their worldview, Assyria represented a place of order while lands not governed by the Assyrian king (and by extension, the god Ashur) were seen as places of chaos and disorder. As such it was seen as the king's duty to expand the borders of Assyria and bring order and civilization to lands perceived as uncivilized. As Assyria expanded, its rulers gradually adopted grander and more boastful titles. Early kings used Iššiʾak Aššur (representative/viceroy of Ashur), considering the god Ashur to be the true king. From the time of Ashur-uballit I (14th century BC), the rulers instead used king (šar). In time, further titles, such as "king of Sumer and Akkad", "king of the Universe" and "king of the Four Corners of the World", were added, often to assert their control over all of Mesopotamia.

All modern lists of Assyrian kings generally follow the Assyrian King List, a list kept and developed by the ancient Assyrians themselves over the course of several centuries. Though some parts of the list are probably fictional, the list accords well with Hittite, Babylonian and ancient Egyptian king lists and with the archaeological record, and is generally considered reliable for the age. The line of Assyrian kings ended with the defeat of Assyria's final king Ashur-uballit II by the Neo-Babylonian Empire and the Median Empire in 609 BC, after which Assyria disappeared as an independent political unit, never to rise again. The Assyrian people survived the fall of their empire and kept their own cultural and religious traditions (though were Christianized in the 1st–3rd centuries AD). At times, Assur and other Assyrian cities were afforded great deals of autonomy by its foreign rulers after the 7th century BC, particularly under the Achaemenid and Parthian empires.

Assyrian King List of the 7th century BC on a terracotta tablet, from Assur

Incomplete king-lists have been recovered from three of the major ancient Assyrian capitals (Assur, Dur-Sharrukin and Nineveh). The three lists are largely consistent with each other, all originally copies of a single original list, and are based on the yearly appointments of limmy-officials (the eponymous officials for each year, appointed by the king to preside over the celebration of the New Year festival). Because of the consistency between the list and the method through which it was created, modern scholars usually accept the regnal years mentioned as more or less correct. There are some differences between the copies of the list, notably in that they offer somewhat diverging regnal years before the reign of king Ashur-dan I of the Middle Assyrian Empire (reign beginning in ح. 1178 BC). After his time, the lists are identical in their contents.[5]

The king-lists mostly accord well with Hittite, Babylonian and ancient Egyptian king lists and with the archaeological record, and are generally considered reliable for the age.[6] It is however clear that parts of the list are fictional, as some known kings are not found on the list and other listed kings are not independently verified.[7] Originally it was assumed that the list was first written in the time of Shamshi-Adad I ح. 1800 BC but it now is considered to date from much later, probably from the time of Ashurnasirpal I (ح1049–1031 BC).[8] The oldest of the surviving king-lists, List A (8th century BC) stops at Tiglath-Pileser II (ح967–935 BC) and the youngest, List C, stops at Shalmaneser V (ح727–722 BC).[9]

One problem that arises with the Assyrian King List is that the creation of the list may have been more motivated by political interest than actual chronological and historical accuracy. In times of civil strife and confusion, the list still adheres to a single royal line of descent, probably ignoring rival claimants to the throne.[10] Additionally, there are some known inconsistencies between the list and actual inscriptions by Assyrian kings, often regarding dynastic relationships. For instance, Ashur-nirari II is stated by the list to be the son of his predecessor Enlil-Nasir II, but from inscriptions it is known that he was actually the son of Ashur-rabi I and brother of Enlil-Nasir.[11]

Assyrian royal titles typically followed trends that had begun under the Akkadian Empire (ح. 2334–2154 BC), the Mesopotamian civilization that preceded the later kingdoms of Assyria and Babylon. When the Mesopotamian central government under the Third Dynasty of Ur (ح. 2112–2004 BC) collapsed and polities that had once been vassals to Ur became independent, many of the new sovereign rulers refrained from taking the title of king (šar), instead applying that title to their principal deities (in the case of Assyria, Ashur). For this reason, most of the Assyrian kings of the Old Assyrian period (ح. 2025–1364 BC) used the title Iššiʾak Aššur, translating to "governor of Assyria".[12][13]

In contrast to the titles employed by the Babylonian kings in the south, which typically focused on the protective role and the piety of the king, Assyrian royal inscriptions tend to glorify the strength and power of the king.[14] Assyrian titularies usually also often emphasize the royal genaeology of the king, something Babylonian titularies do not, and also drive home the king's moral and physical qualities while downplaying his role in the judicial system.[15] Assyrian epithets about royal lineage vary in how far they stretch back, most often simply discussing lineage in terms of "son of ..." or "brother of ...". Some cases display lineage stretching back much further, Shamash-shum-ukin (ح667–648 BC) describes himself as a "descendant of Sargon II", his great-grandfather. More extremely, Esarhaddon (ح681–669 BC) calls himself a "descendant of the eternal seed of Bel-bani", a king who lived more than a thousand years before him.[16]

Assyrian royal titularies were often changed depending on where the titles were to be displayed, the titles of the same Assyrian king would have been different in their home country of Assyria and in conquered regions. Those Neo-Assyrian kings who controlled the city of Babylon used a "hybrid" titulary of sorts in the south, combining aspects of the Assyrian and Babylonian tradition, similar to how the traditional Babylonian deities were promoted in the south alongside the Assyrian main deity of Ashur.[15] The assumption of many traditional southern titles, including the ancient "king of Sumer and Akkad" and the boastful "king of the Universe" and "king of the Four Corners of the World", by the Assyrian kings served to legitimize their rule and assert their control over Babylon and lower Mesopotamia.[17] Epithets like "chosen by the god Marduk and the goddess Sarpanit" and "favourite of the god Ashur and the goddess Mullissu", both assumed by Esarhaddon, illustrate that he was both Assyrian (Ashur and Mullissu, the main pair of Assyrian deities) and a legitimate ruler over Babylon (Marduk and Sarpanit, the main pair of Babylonian deities).[18]

To exemplify an Assyrian royal title from the time Assyria ruled all of Mesopotamia, the titulature preserved in one of Esarhaddon's inscriptions reads as follows:[19]

The great king, the mighty king, king of the Universe, king of Assyria, viceroy of Babylon, king of Sumer and Akkad, son of Sennacherib, the great king, the mighty king, king of Assyria, grandson of Sargon, the great king, the mighty king, king of Assyria; who under the protection of Assur, Sin, Shamash, Nabu, Marduk, Ishtar of Nineveh, Ishtar of Arbela, the great gods, his lords, made his way from the rising to the setting sun, having no rival.

Ancient Assyria was an absolute monarchy, with the king believed to be appointed directly through divine right by the chief deity, Ashur.[1] The Assyrians believed that the king was the link between the gods and the earthly realm. As such, it was the king's primary duty to discover the will of the gods and enact this, often through the construction of temples or waging war. To aid the king with this duty, there was a number of priests at the royal court trained in reading and interpreting signs from the gods.[20]

The heartland of the Assyrian realm, Assyria itself, was thought to represent a serene and perfect place of order whilst the lands governed by foreign powers were perceived as infested with disorder and chaos.[1] The peoples of these "outer" lands were seen as uncivilized, strange and as speaking strange languages.[21] Because the king was the earthly link to the gods, it was his duty to spread order throughout the world through the military conquest of these strange and chaotic countries.[1] As such, imperial expansion was not just expansion for expansion's sake but was also seen as a process of bringing divine order and destroying chaos to create civilization.[21]

There exists several ancient inscriptions in which the god Ashur explicitly orders kings to extend the borders of Assyria. A text from the reign of Tukulti-Ninurta I (حح. 1243–1207 BC) states that the king received a royal scepter and was commanded to "broaden the land of Ashur". A similar inscription from the reign of Ashurbanipal (ح668–631 BC) commands the king to "extend the land at his feet".[21]

The king was also tasked with protecting his own people, often being referred to as a "shepherd". This protection included defending against external enemies and defending citizens from dangerous wild animals. To the Assyrians, the most dangerous animal of all was the lion, used (similarly to foreign powers) as an example of chaos and disorder due to their aggressive nature. To prove themselves worthy of rule and illustrate that they were competent protectors, Assyrian kings engaged in ritual lion hunts. Lion-hunting was reserved for Assyrian royalty and was a public event, staged at parks in or near the Assyrian cities.[1] In some cases, the hunt even took place with captive lions in an arena.[22]

الشرعية

As opposed to some other ancient monarchies, such as ancient Egypt, the Assyrian king was not believed to be divine himself, but was seen as divinely chosen and uniquely qualified for the royal duties. Most kings stressed their legitimacy through their familial connections to previous kings; a king was legitimate through his relation to the previous line of great kings who had been chosen by Ashur. Usurpers who were unrelated to previous kings usually either simply lied about being the son of some previous monarch or claimed that they had been divinely appointed directly by Ashur.[21]

Two prominent examples of such usurpers are the kings Tiglath-Pileser III (ح745–727 BC) and Sargon II (ح722–705 BC). The inscriptions of these kings completely lack any familial references to previous kings, instead stressing that Ashur himself had appointed them directly with phrases such as "Ashur called my name", "Ashur placed me on the throne" and "Ashur placed his merciless weapon in my hand".[21]

المصادر المسمارية

توجد حالياً ثلاث نسخ من ألواح مسمارية لقائمة الملوك الآشوريين، وشظيتان.[23] They date to the early first millennium ق.م.—the oldest, List A (8th century ق.م.) stopping at Tiglath-Pileser II (ح. 967–935 ق.م.) and the youngest, List C, at شلمنصر الخامس (727–722 ق.م.). Assyriologists believe the list was originally compiled to link Shamshi-Adad I (ازدهر ح. 1700 ق.م. (short)), an Amorite who had conquered Assur، to the native rulers of the land of Assur. Scribes then copied the List and added to it over time.[24]

الفترة الآشورية القديمة

Damage to the tablets in all three extant King Lists before إنليل-ناصر الثاني (ح. 1420–1415 ق.م. (short)) prevents the calculation of approximate regnal dates from Erishum I to this point. Additionally, three kings attested elsewhere from this period are not included in the standard King List. The remainder of the King List then has an unbroken chain of regnal lengths from Enlil-nasir II on. Disparities between the different versions of the King List for the reigns of Ashur-nadin-apli (ح. 1196–1194 ق.م. (short)) and Ninurta-apal-Ekur (ح. 1182–1180 ق.م. (short)) contribute to the debate over the chronology of the ancient Near East.[24][30] Georges Roux and A. Leo Oppenheim provide dates in their King Lists, but these are open to debate[31]

الفترة الآشورية الوسطى

The dates up to Ninurta-apal-Ekur (ح. 1182–1180 ق.م.) are subject to debate, as some of the regnal lengths vary over the different versions of the King List. The dates given below are based on Assyrian King Lists B and C, which give only three years to Ashur-nadin-apli، and the same to Ninurta-apal-Ekur. (Assyrian King List A gives four years to Ashur-nadin-apli and 13 years to Ninurta-apal-Ekur.[35]) This timeframe is also subject to the overall debate about the chronology of the ancient Near East; the short (or low) chronology is used here.

Dates from 1179 to 912 ق.م., although less secure than dates from 911 ق.م. onwards, are not subject to the chronology debate.[25]

الفترة الآشورية الحديثة

Synchronisms between the limmu lists and absolute dates known from Babylonian chronology provide good absolute dates for the years between 911 ق.م. and 649 ق.م..

The dates for the very end of the Assyrian period are uncertain due to the lack of limmu lists after 649 ق.م.. Some sources list Ashurbanipal's death in 631 ق.م., rather than 627 ق.م.; Ashur-etil-ilani then reigns from 631 to 627, and Sin-shar-ishkun reigns until 612 ق.م., when he is known to have died in the اجتياح نينوى.[25]

شظايا قوائم يونانية ورومانية

قطسياس

Ctesias as court physician to Artaxerxes II، claimed to have access to the royal historical records. Ctesias' list of Assyrian kings was included in his Persica, a work covering the history of Persia, but the first 3 books were dedicated to pre-Persian Assyria entitled "The History of the Assyrians". How much of Ctesias' king list is factual history is still debated, while most scholars agree large parts are fiction, it is generally agreed that there is historical truth based on the probability his list was rooted in transmitted oral tradition.[42][43] Classical scholar Robert Drews however has argued that Ctesias' list contains information from Babylonian tablets.[44] Although Ctesias's entire work is lost, fragments of it are found preserved in Diodorus Siculus، Nicolaus of Damascus and Photius. From these fragments it is known Ctesias dated the founding of the Assyria to ح. 2166 ق.م., by king Ninus، husband of Queen Semiramis، and 30 further Assyrian kings followed for 1300 years in succession to Sardanapalus (ح. 866 ق.م.). [45] Ctesias' list of 30 successors from Ninus (وسميراميس) to Sandanapalus is lost.

كاستور من رودس وكفاليون

In the 1st century ق.م., Castor of Rhodes compiled an Assyrian King List, similar to that of Ctesias'. However fragments only remain in mutilated form, but it is known from these fragments that Castor's Assyrian king list started with Belus، but like Ctesias' included Ninus، also said to be the husband of Semiramis. However Ninus equates in Castor's list to the second king, not the first and is said to have ruled for 52 years. Castor further dated Belus to 2123 ق.م..[46] A fragment from Cephalion، names Ninus' successor to be Ninyas, his son.

  1. ^ Early Assyrian rulers, who ruled little more than a city-state, typically styled themselves Iššiʾak Aššur (regent or representative of Ashur). Some historians regard Ashur-uballit I as the first Assyrian king since he was the first to adopt the style šar māt Aššur (king of Assyria), which was then in consistent use from his time onwards.[2]
