==Fate== As part of the [[Kingdom of Israel (Samaria)|Kingdom of Israel]], the territory of Manasseh was conquered by the [[ancient Assyrians|Assyrians]] in the 720's BC, and many members of the tribe were exiled; others fled south to the Kingdom of Judah. Either way, the manner of their exile and dispersal led to [[Lost Ten Tribes|their further history being lost]]. However, several modern day groups claim descent, with varying levels of academic and rabbinical support. Both the [[Bnei Menashe]] and the [[Samaritan]]s claim that some of their adherents are descended from this tribe.
