The Assyrian kings of the late tenth and early ninth centuries campaigned in the west and helped to reestablish regional control through infrastructure
 
 However, it is Ashurnasirpal II (r. 883-859 B.C.E. BC)
 Shalmaneser III (r. 858-824 B.C.E. BC)
 between 853 and 845 B.C.E.  BC
the wife of Shamshi-Adad V (r. 823-811 B.C.E. BC)
