Since the writer states that Kush and Egypt have Obv. 4. been overcome, and prays that the Cimmerians and Mannai may meet wiih the same fate, it may be inferred that the letter

was written about the time of Assurbanipal's third expedition. Egypt was not finally subdued until his second campaign, and
it

was shortly

after this that the Assyrians

came

into contact

with the Lydian king, Gyges.

Gyges, finding the Cimmerians

too strong for him, followed the advice which had been given

him

in a

dream, and sent to ask help from Assyria.

His

request was granted, and the Cimmerians submitted for a time

but the Lydian king forgot the benefits of Assurbanipal, and

sent his

army

to aid Psametik, king of Egypt,

who was

chafing

under the Assyrian yoke. The Assyrians naturally resented this breach of faith and withdrew their help, thereby allowing
the Cimmerians to rise against Lydia for a second time.
