War continued between the two countries during the ensuing reigns of Merodach-shapik-ziri in Babylon and Asshur-bil-kala in Assyria, but with no important successes, so far as appears, on either side.
From a monument of Asshur-bil-kala's own time one of the earliest Assyrian sculptures that has cone down to us we may perhaps further conclude that he inherited something of the religious spirit of his father, and gave a portion of his attention to the adornment of temples, and the setting up of images. The probable date of the reign of Asshur-bil-kala is about B.C. 1110-1090.
The fact of his having warred in Lower Mesopotamia is almost the whole that is known of Tiglath-Pileser's son and successor, Asshur-bil-kala.
