Lion hunting was something that the Assyrian culture took very seriously. The subject of this piece of art would in fact also be lion hunting. There were once many animals hunted during the time period however the most popular were lions. This piece of art was most likely created between 645-640 BCE because this was during the time of the Assyrian Empire. As a tradition the king would put on for all his subjects, in this case it would be King Ashurnasirpal the second, where he is ridden around an arena in a chariot slaughtering the lions who dare challenge him. The ability to kill these lions who fought to the death showed the king?s great power and stood as a warning to anyone who thought of challenging of crossing him.

How did plant and animal domestication set the scene for the emergence of civilization? The domestication of plants coincided with the cultivation of the use of fire. Environments dictated the choice of crops, which is why there are different types of food in all places of the world. The domestication of animals occured during the same time as that of plants. When global warming heightened, it transitioned hunter-gathering lifestyles to agricultural lifestyles, which historians call the Helocene Revolution (9000 BCE). With this new lifestyle came the emergence of civilization, and it increased the population from ten million in 5000 BCE to fifty to one hundred million by 1000 BCE.
