المستخلص: New Assyrian cuneiform text, especially royal annals, and war scenes carved on reliefs steles, statues and other royal monuments emphasize the importance of war spoils that were taken from the cities and countries which the Assyrian army conquered. This fact makes it clear that one of main aims of Assyrian military campaigns was economic, that is to bring to Assyria spoils of value such as gold, silver, tin and other valuables in addition to prisoners of war, weapons of different kinds, animals such as horses, mules, sheep, and other animals. In spite of the importance of spoils of war to understand the political and economic policy of the late Assyrian kings, little has been written in Arabic on this particular subject. This has led us to write on spoils of war in the New Assyrian Period. It in obvious that most of our references was in foreign languages or written in cuneiform script which made our work difficult as our knowledge in English is very limited. Be that as it may, we tried our best to give a detailed study on spoils of war based mainly on cuneiform text that were translated into English by various scholars. The study was divided into four main sections in addition to the introduction and preface The first section dealt with vocabulary used in cuneiform texts to denote to the various kinds of spoils and to they way spoils were taken. The second section mention the different kinds of spoils taken such as human beings who were regarded prisoners of war, weapons and chariots, different kind of animals, cloths, minerals, precious, stones, ivory, food stuffs, wood and agricultural products. The third section tackles the economic importance of spoils to the Assyrian government and society. It contains several chapters each of which was dedicated to certain importance. The fourth and last section war concerned mainly with the informative aim of text concerned and scenes carved on monuments and the propaganda it serves for the Assyrian king and army. It consists of three main chapters. Finally the study was annexed with conclusion in addition to many maps and photographs that clarify what has been dealt with in the four sections of the thesis
