Nimi The 'Queens of the Arabs' during the Neo-Assyrian Period. An interview with Ellie Bennett Tunnustuksen arvo Kansainvälinen Medianimi / kanava Nomads, Past and Present Mediatyyppi Verkko Kesto / pituus / koko 1 hour Maa/Alue Unknown Julkaisupäivämäärä 06/07/2021 Kuvaus Eight women appear in Neo-Assyrian sources from the 7th and 8th centuries BCE with the ambiguous but intriguing title 'queen of the Arabs.' Despite providing a rare glimpse of power wielded by women in this period, these rulers remain under-studied and often misunderstood in Assyriology. Aiming to correct these misconceptions, 'the queens of the Arabs' formed the basis of Dr. Ellie Bennett's doctoral dissertation (University of Helsinki, 2021). In this episode Dr. Bennett joins me to talk about gender, language, king- and queenship, the "Arabs" and life in the Arabian Peninsula, and depictions and understandings of nomadism in the Neo-Assyrian Period. Follow Dr. Bennett on Twitter: @sharratu_EllieB . Read the dissertation "The 'Queens of the Arabs' during the Neo-Assyrian Period."
