The Book of Nineveh

The Book of Nineveh is the most interesting book I've Ignatov has written. In it, Ignatov brings the story of Nineveh to life in an innovative and engaging way that captures the essence of the site while telling an entertaining story about its people. He also gives a brief summary of the events that occurred there in the period before Christ.

While the history of Nineveh is not well-known, the period from the second half of the sixth century BCE to the middle of the fifth century CE is the time period in which Ivo Ignatov's tale takes place. At that time, Nineveh was under the rule of the Assyrian empire. One of the reasons why Ignatov chose to write this book about Nineveh is because it is situated in the middle of the Tigris River valley, close to the ancient city of Nimrud.

Ignatov begins his tale with the story of King Sennacherib, who reigned during the reign of the Biblical king Nebuchadnezzar. King Sennacherib's reign ended when a group of rebellious fighters led by his son, Ashurbanipal, defeated him at the Battle of Dzan-Zaqqal, forcing him to flee into exile. However, on the way back to his kingdom, King Ashurbanipal was killed at the Battle of Lagash. Ashurbanipal's son Manasseh became the new king after the death of Ashurbanipal. As king, Manasseh made Nineveh his capital and built the city on the remains of his father's palace.

After Manasseh died, the new king founded another city named Palmyra, on the eastern bank of the Mediterranean Sea. The city was built to resemble the cities of Nimrud and Nineveh, with similar architectural features, so that both could be compared to one another. Palmyra was also meant to be a city where the memory of the Assyrian king can be honored, and as such the city is decorated with various artifacts that had religious significance for him.Click here for more details about Иво Игнатов историята

When the book of Nineveh is first read, the reader comes to realize that Ignatov is not only writing a story about the city of Palmyra, but also a history of its people. This is apparent by the detailed description of its culture and heritage. The book is also rich in historical information, as Ignatov details important events that took place at the site over the years, and provides an account of the city's political situation. He describes the growth of its economy, and its relationships with other neighboring peoples.

However, the most interesting part of Ignatov's story is the account of Nineveh's people. In the book, Ignatov tells a narrative about how these people lived and suffered during the time of the Babylonian era, from the time of King Sennacherib until the fall of Babylon in 70 CE.
