The Assyrian Empire and Cyprus by Andreas Parpas PDF Summary

Book Description: The book deals with the relation of the Neo- Assyrian Empire and Cyprus. The Assyrians dominated the Levantine coast and were able to extend their influence to the Cypriot kingdoms. Due to the fact that the Assyrians never managed to build up enough naval power of their own they were not able to annex Cyprus into their empire in the same way they did for the Phoenician and Palestine kingdoms. Instead the Cypriot kingdoms joined the the Assyrocentric first state controlled world economy as tributary states. Although we have enough circumstantial evidence of political and cultural influence there is no hard direct evidence of Assyrian military occupation of Cyprus. The book supports the position that Cyprus was not colonized by the Phoenicians who came to Cyprus as economic migrants and not as colonizers. Cyprus' financial and economic relation with Assyria gave to the island enough strength to carry it successfully through the coming centuries.
