The Day the Assyrian Cavalry Overwhelmed Babylonian Rebels

In 689 BC, Sennacherib’s ruthless Assyrian army—led by elite heavy cavalry armed with lances, bows, and iron scale armor—stormed into Babylon, overwhelming rebel forces in a lightning campaign that crushed the ancient city’s defiance after years of revolt. This video reveals the thunderous charges that shattered Babylonian infantry and chariots, how Assyrian horsemen exploited speed and terror to encircle and annihilate defenders, and why Sennacherib’s vengeful sack razed temples, flooded canals, and erased Babylon itself—proving the Neo-Assyrian Empire’s cavalry could conquer the cradle of civilization in one of history’s most savage acts of imperial retribution.
