| 释义 |
A Tartan ({{lang-he-n|תַּרְתָּן}}; {{lang-el|Θαρθαν}}; {{lang-la|Tharthan}}; {{lang-arc|ܬܵܪܬܵܢ}} Tartan) was the commander-in-chief of the Assyrian army. There are two references to Tartans in the Hebrew Bible: the Assyrian king sends a Tartan with two other officials to deliver a threatening message to Jerusalem in {{bibleverse|2|Kings|18:17|}}, and Sargon II, the king of Assyria, sends a Tartan who takes Ashdod during the reign of King Hezekiah at the time of the prophet Isaiah.[1][2] In Assyria, the Tartan ranked next to the king.[3] The office seems to have been duplicated, and there was a tartanu imni or 'tartan of the right', as well as a tartanu shumeli or 'tartan of the left'. In later times the title became territorial; we read of a tartan of 'Kummuh' (Commagene). The title is also applied to the commanders of foreign armies; thus Sargon speaks of the Tartan Musurai, or 'Egyptian Tartan'.[4] The Tartan of 720 BC was probably called Ashur-iska-danin; in 694 BC, Abdai, and in 686 BC Bel-emurani, held the title.[4] It does not seem to have been in use among the closely related Babylonians.
