Detailed explanation-1: -The Assyrian imperial communication network relied on mounted messengers and the exclusive transport animal used for this purpose was the mule (kūdunu), always employed in pairs-a strategy intended to reduce the chance of the rider ever being left stranded with a lame animal.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Assyrian Empire was built on the strength of their powerful army. The warrior society of the Assyrians produced fearsome soldiers as well as innovative generals. They used chariots, iron weapons, and siege equipment to dominate their enemies. The early Assyrians were a warrior society.
Detailed explanation-3: -Horses were a key part of the Assyrian military, and some campaigns to the empire’s north and east were even fought for the purpose of acquiring them. An unusual characteristic of later Assyrian palace reliefs depicting military campaigns is that they are filled with landscape imagery.
