This is quite comical with that of our dear cousins, the English. Perhaps to view the following url as show and tell:

I am so sorry as seemingly to ignore your very fine reply, but this would be in reverse of truth.
I was some what taken back by your knowledge of us, in as of this, was to think and review possible risk of how to address with out possible irritations to forum members.
We each as a person {people}, first we must know and understand our selves before any attempt of understanding of others. Once we know our selves, we must then know or origins as the foundation of knowledge, for this then will be the blue print of our future.
The long past leader of our previous government, Adolf Hitler, was a bit ignorant of us as a people, for he was Austrian and what do they have in common with us? Nothing, but our language. In as well to the Romans, my self as descendant from those ignorant forest tribes known as: Teuton, they/my ancestors, were of many tribes or families with affiliations by requirement of mutual protection and family ties. Ours was the family name meaning: lock of hair. For our fighting men {warriors} wore their hair tied back and dyed red. The hair bun was for reason of protection, to keep it out of the eyes and out of the hands of an enemy. The colour red, was to scary heck out of the enemy.
As example of above: The Romans were very well organized and disciplined. For the commanders would analyze the field of battle and in the case of an open area suitable for combat in numbers, often as naught, the order was given to close front ranks with shields as a protective wall. This would provide protection for the cavalry to form and charge through a provided opening of shields.
To counter this tactic, our {my ancestors of Teuton} would gather horsemen fore shielded by forest trees, armed them with what spears to be carried, the horsemen would stand astride two horse and charge yelling across the field of battle and through the Roman wall of shields. In this manner, the remainder of foot solders of Teuton, would follow through closely by this action, and now behind the Romans whilst remaining Teuton infront of them, the Romans would be fighting an often losing battle.
This was one tactic that was eventually countered by the Romans by alliances with other peoples not so friendly, until the mostly demise of Teuton families. For the stupid manner of refusing defeat, was once the able fighting men were used up, it was then to the women and children to take up arms and fight until few were left. If not for some survivors, I would not be here writing this..
In as of the subject at hand as you have presented, yes and no as our selves as Assyrians. Please before tossing nasty smelling vegetables, may I describe my position. My studies were in Anthropology in as of this, often as naught, in field studies, accompany those of Archeology.
In as of modern Western peoples, most are descended from the land between two rivers, the city states of Sumer or Shinar,Ur or Uruk, dependant upon interpretation by the finder. Or most will recognize {Babylonia} {The Bible is the best historic record of events and locations, that is, if understood by the reader}
What is confusing to some as researchers is the difference in writing used by some peoples such as Hittites. For they used both hieroglyphics and cuneiform wedge writing, dependant upon circumstances of correspondence rather for foreign or domestic use.
It is of some question that I will not attempt to justify, that many of us are indeed so descended as Assyrian, but then through the process of diffusion, we may also be of many different peoples.
What is most defining though is through the confines of history we know. And that was first the conquering of the City of Lachish by king Sennacherib {son of former king, Sargon}.
The city was held by the Judahite {Israelis} and conquered through combined forces of engineering of ramps/invention of the tank {Panzer}, composed of a heavy frame work of wood armoured with green dried animal hides, armed with a large heavy battering ram at front, traveled upon wooden wheels and pushed by solders under the protection of the upper covering.
Once the city was captured, the people of Judea were taken prisoner to Babylonia and history speaks of the rest as they lived in captivity. I think perhaps though, what is not spoken is a situation that ruled the lives of these Judians. For they were forbidden to learn or indulge in crafts. In this for as to make their living, they were forced to be by necessity, shop keepers and traders.
To keep within reasonable length of reply, if to make better understanding, the following urls will more complete my response, or if the case may be, create more questions that may be problematic of my correct reply..
www.bible-history.com/map-israel-joshua/map-israel-joshua_the_hittites_encyclopedia.html
For as in the manner of ancient records, there are records left in the old wall city of Aleppo Syria of Assyrian control and actions in that area of the known world.
The following url, I do most agree with. Please though, if to read, be aware of the ending, for it will describe the changing of the house of Hanover by the royal family to that of: The house of Windsor..{The Brits are easly confused with loss of proper focus} but it is to the reader to believe that which is to be believed.

The following more or less follows my personal feelings upon this matter. But with reservations.
