Samaria was conquered twice: in 723 BCE by Shalmaneser V and in 720 BCE by Sargon II. The fall of the city was an inevitable result of the expansion of the Assyrian Empire and the internal strives in Israel. In the present study all the relevant sources and their interpretations are thoroughly discussed and evaluated.

"2 Kings 17 narrates the fall of Samaria. The cuneiform inscriptions dealing with this event are prima facie contradictory: the conquest is ascribed to both Shalmaneser V and Sargon II. The surmise of Tadmor that Samaria was conquered twice is investigated.The fall of Samaria can be interpreted as an inevitable result of the expansion of the Assyrian Empire in combination with internal strives in Israel.
