# Ashur-dan II

> Ashur-Dan II (Aššur-dān), son of Tiglath Pileser II, was the last king of the interregnum between the Middle Assyrian Empire, and the birthing of the Neo-Assyrian Empire. He was best known for recapturing previously held Assyrian territory in Anatolia, Levant and Zagros and shoring up Assyria's natural borders, in a line from Tur Abdin, Harran, Kiultepe, Merida and Hakkari across southeast Anatolia in the north, the Khabur delta and Hassakeh region to the west, Zagros Mountains to the east and central Mesopotamia to the south. The reclaimed territory through his conquest was fortified with horses, ploughs, and grain stores. His military and economic expansions benefited four subsequent generations of kings that replicated his model.
