Since the writer states that

was written about the time of Assurbanipal's third expedition. Egypt was not finally subdued until his second campaign, and
it

was shortly after this that the Assyrians came into contact with the Lydian king, Gyges. Gyges, finding the Cimmerians too strong for him, followed the advice which had been given

him

in a dream, and sent to ask help from Assyria. His request was granted, and the Cimmerians submitted for a time ; but the Lydian king forgot the benefits of Assurbanipal, and

sent his

army to aid Psametik, king of Egypt, who was chafing under the Assyrian yoke. The Assyrians naturally resented this breach of faith and withdrew their help, thereby allowing the Cimmerians to rise against Lydia for a second time. Gyges
