Digitized by Google TIGLATHPILESER AND §ALMANESER 47 on the shores of the Mediterranean/ and it is not improbable that to this period
...should be assigned the expedition against Tyre recorded in II R. 67, Z. 66. '' The Rab§ake I sent to Tyre ; from Metena QDD) of Tyre I received 150 talents of gold. ' ' This expedition must have taken place after 738, for Hiram had been succeeded by Metena; but it is not possible to locate it more defi- nitely. Perhaps Tyre had grown restless under the rule of Sal- maneser during the crisis of 734, and Tiglathpileser had dis- patched the army to quell the revolt. Jeremias is inclined to place the expedition in the closing years of Tiglathpileser 's reign, in 728 or 727.' The one interesting feature in all these inscriptions is the absolute silence of Tiglathpileser concerning Sidon.
