jan 1, 737 BC - Iran Stele

Description:

One section of the inscription records a list of kings who paid tribute to Tiglath-Pileser III, divided between those in the West and East. The western list says:

“I received tribute from... Rezon of Damascus, Menahem of Samaria, Hiram of Tyre,... gold, silver,...”

“In my former campaigns I considered all the cities... that I carried away as booty and... the place of Samaria only did I leave their king.”
