Ashur-danin-pal
Assur-danin-pal was the son of the king of Assyria, Shalmaneser III. He rebelled against his father in an attempt to seize the throne. However, Shalmaneser III's younger son Shamshi-Ramman II crushed his rebellion.
Assur-danin-pal had sought the alliance of the Babylonian King Marduk-balatsuiqbi, and tried to overthrow his brother. But Shamshi-Ramman II undertook four campaigns and defeated the maurading army of the Babylonians.
Eventually, Assur-danin-pal had to give up his rebellion. His later years are shrouded in mystery.Literature
