Tiglath Pileser III (745-727 BCE) was among the most powerful kings of the Neo-Assyrian Empire and, according to many scholars, the founder of the empire (as opposed to the claims for Adad Nirari II (912-891 BCE) or Ashurnasirpal II (884-859 BCE) as founder). https://www.worldhistory.org/Tiglath_Pileser_III/ #History #AssyrianWarfare #Neo-AssyrianEmpire #SargonII
