Fall of Ashdod

Ancient battle

The Fall of Ashdod was the successful Egyptian assault on the city of Ashdod, one of the five cities of the famed Philistine pentapolis, located in southwestern Canaan, about 655 BC. According to the Greek historian Herodotus, pharaoh Psamtik I besieged Ashdod for 29 years. Ashdod had lost most of its inhabitants during those long years of siege.
