A Decorative Plaque Was Discovered in Israel Which Some
Scholars Believe to Be That of a Female Canaanite King and
Possibly the Mysterious Mistress of the Lionesses. Around
1350 BC Several Canaanite Kings Sent Clay Tablets to the
Egyptian Pharaoh Requesting Military Help From Nomadic
Marauders Known as the Habiru. Of the 382 Tablets That Have
Been Found, Two Were Signed With the Feminine Epithet
"Mistress of the Lionesses." According to Israeli
Archaeologist Zvi Lederman, "The Mistress Complained to the
Egyptian Court That the Habiru Were Around and that her City
was in Danger."

Fallen Empires https://free-bible.com/biblehistoryonline_fallenempires.php
A voice says, "Cry out." And I said, "What shall I cry?"
"All men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of
the field." Isa. 40:6
Archaeology provides one of the many sober reminders that we are not eternal. As we see history's graveyard, it's like viewing the tombstone of an empire. "Here lies the once proud Assyrian Empire who ruled many and feared none"
As you watch the video provided by a thoughtful soldier in Iraq taking a moment to tour the ruins of Nineveh, the once mighty capital of the Mesopotamian Fertile Crescent, try to imagine life there and the surrounding countryside. How many people saw the powerful Nineveh gates as a part of their daily scenery? The gates were just always there, part of the skyline, taken for granted, testifying to the King's authority and glory.
What was it like for the rulers? They enjoyed that eternal feeling that we all have while we are young and strong. Living in grandeur and exercising power over a kingdom of peoples they enjoyed all that life could provide.
King Sennacherib would have moved through these gates on his way to confront
the humble nation of Judah and King Hezekiah who Sennacherib said he had trapped
in Jerusalem like a "caged bird". Little did he know that he alone
would be confronted by God Himself!
If he could have experienced a terrifying dream of a Humvee with soldiers carrying M-16's driving upon the ruins of his empire, contemplating the lessons of their fallen empire, he might have gained that perspective that his life was finite, his empire would one day fall, and his only hope was in humbly seeking a relationship with the God of heaven. The same lesson that each of us today has to learn. As happened to every empire uncovered by the spade, will also happen to each of us. All that is left in the end is our relationship with God and what we have wrought for His kingdom. The only thing we can take beyond the grave are the others we have served by feeding them the Word of God.
I hated all the things I had toiled for under the sun,
because I must leave them to the one who comes after me. Ecc. 2:18

"Little by little, one city after another, one civilization after
another, one culture after another, whose memories were enshrined
only in the Bible, were restored to their proper places in ancient
history by the studies of archaeologists... Contemporary records of
biblical events emphasized by contrast and comparison... Nowhere has
archaeological discovery refuted the Bible as history."
-John Elder "Prophets, idols and Diggers" (New York: Bobbs Merrill,
1960) p. 16
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"A substantial proof for the accuracy of the Old Testament text has
come from archaeology. Numerous discoveries have confirmed the
historical accuracy of the biblical documents, even down to the
obsolete names of foreign kings... Rather than a manifestation of
complete ignorance of the facts of its day, the biblical record thus
reflects a great knowledge by the writer of his day, as well as
precision in textual transmission."
-Norman L. Geisler, William Nix "A General Introduction to the
Bible" 5th Edition (Chicago: Moody Press 1983) p. 253
