The present article gives a new edition and analysis of ‘The Hunter and the Asses’ (LKA 62) and discusses its political, historical and literary setting. We argue for the identification of the text as a paean, glorifying the campaigns of Shalmaneser III to the west against the coalition of 12 kings led by the king of Damascus
