In the image, you see how the walls of the room are largely covered by the carvings. They are aligned in a way that looks as though, if read up close, they would tell a story. If, for instance, it was read from left to right, there would be a point in which the group of stories would reach it's end. In the podcast, they talked about the cycle of war, and if I or someone else who had heard the podcast would have made our own lachish reliefs, we would probably have a reference to the son killing the king as well as the re-starting of that cycle with the new king.

The relief carvings show the story of the middle east, particularily Syria, and the rise of the middle eastern theatre. It also depicts the stuggle that many refugees faced when the war ended. This idea of innocents struggling with the hardships that come with war can be reflected onto the current refugee crisis in Syria. The podcast also discusses how war, refugees and violence is cyclical and how the cycles of violence have to reflect themselves as they did after the king of Syria's sons killed him. From the idea of cyclical violence we can reflect that into modern and more mundane lives and use that to approach the subject of abuse and crime violence, not only war. Because violence is cyclical we are nearly doomed to an eternity filled with hate if the violence is not stopped before it can be passed down.

In this image we can see the displacement of refugees as people are forced out of the city, the aftermath of war needed to be dealt with in new ways as more people were involved in wars because they were on a bigger scale. also you can see a wheel, showing how fast the invention spread in less than 50 years

In this image we can see that the city of Lachish looks very powerful and technologic. We can see a palace and walls many new inventions that are influenced by war. This must of been a very fierce battle and many lives must have been lost to be able to capture such a city that looks so defensively strong. Also where could you the refugees have of gone from inside the city there is really only one exit and people must of been in a very chaotic state.

This image shows the numerous archers ready to fire, presumably in the Assyrian army. This is possibly the propaganda that the podcast was talking about, as it's showing the powerful force of the army.

This depicts refugees leaving in many numbers, carrying their things on there backs. Below then are some soldiers with horses heading towards the city, though the city isn't depicted. This shows the many people that were displaced after the invasion and how powerful the army that the ruler in the story has, as created by his artists for his walls. He wanted the power he had over these people etched in stone for all eternity.

In this image, war is being shown in the stone. There are people kneeling and shooting spears along with people escaping and housed and/or buildings being destroyed as shown with the airborne pieces on the stone.

The image of these victims of war begging for mercy. One could also say that these people are going to be deported and wish to stay.

on the far right there is a depiction of a multitude of people in carts ad on foot leading camels with all of their stuff being escorted by people with spears. These people obviously are the farmers and civilians being evacuated by the army of the winning side. These people being escorted are refugees after a war.

The scene I chose in the Lachish reliefs depicts some of the warriors storming the gates of Lachish with arrows. The height of the soldiers demonstrates their superiority and though there are less soldiers in the picture it is clear they are winning. Their strength and posture also indicate their heightened competence also.

This image depicts the torture of POW. The people on the bottom of the picture show the agony of the prisoners. These commoners (most likely) were not to blame for the king's treachery yet, they are punished showing the social hierarchy that was so valued in this empire

Off to the top left, there are lines of uniform refugees, walking like slaves. some of their hands bound together. I see men and women. Some have helmets on, meaning the refugees are both soldiers and citizens alike. They are prisoners of war. Why did Sennacherib take soldiers hostage/make them refugees?

I think that this picture depicts either the refugees or the deportation during the aftermath.

The sculpture is displaying the Assyrian spearmen and archers marching into the city of Judah, with Judean survivors fleeing with their belongings. This sculpture one of the earliest depictions of refugees.

This part of the relief seems to be depicting the long marches that the refuges had to go on. You can see a horse drawn chariot-like thing along with multiple people walking. I believe the positioning of the people walking is important because the man behind them has a sort of whip object which forces the horses to walk.

This photo depicts people (likely refugees or soldiers) presenting objects (probably valuables or loot) to the king of the victorious kingdom while servants are holding up his throne. The king is higher and in fancier dress than everyone else in the depiction, representing the power he has over the conquered peoples

# data[].attributes.body
This portion of the relief expresses the power of the military. I believe it is the "propaganda" that the radio lab referred to. I see this in the style of the weapons depicted as well as the way the people are etched on to express large numbers of them.

This shows how the refugees had been treated by the winners of the war. I don't really know how they would hold someone like in this picture. Gravity deficient. Also shows how different refugee people are treated and how even in their group smaller groups are being discriminated against. Right vs Left people.

AS There are many refugees and none of them are carrying any of their riches. This shows the struggle that refugees endure, these struggles are very similar to modern day.  You can see the citizens being marched through Mesopotamia without all of their belongings. This shows that things have rarely changed throughout history when it comes to war besides who is fighting and how.
