For three years Samaria remained untaken. Another revolution had meanwhile broken out in Assyria; Shal- maneser had died or been put to death, and a fresh military adventurer had seized the crown, taking the name of Sargon, after a famous monarch of ancient Babylonia. Sargon had hardly established himself upon the throne when Samaria fell
