Fig. 63.
As to the inhabitants of the northern kingdom of Israel, who are presented to our eyes so vividly by the famous black obelisk of Shalmanezer II (Fig. 61) in its second row (Figs. 63-66) - they are the ambassadors of King Jehu (840 B.C.) with gifts of various sorts, - we now know all three of the localities where the ten tribes found their grave: Chalach, somewhat farther east than the mountainous source of the upper Zab, called Arrapachitis; the province of Goshen along the Chabor probably not far from Nisibis; and thirdly, the villages of Media.
