The Assyrian siege of Lachish is one of the best-documented military events in the ancient world, and one of the strangest. Sennacherib dedicated an entire room of his palace to a city most people have never heard of, while saying nothing about Jerusalem. Why? In this episode, we follow the three million stones of the siege ramp, a toilet installed inside a holy shrine, an unexplained chain that puzzled archaeologists for decades, and the silence of a king who couldn't admit he failed.
