In the [[Assyria]]n period, [[Sibittibaal]] of Byblos became tributary to [[Tiglath-Pileser III]] in 738 BC, and in 701 BC, when [[Sennacherib]] conquered all [[Phoenicia]], the king of Byblos was [[Urumilki]]. Byblos was also subject to Assyrian kings [[Esarhaddon]] (r. 681–669 BC) and [[Ashurbanipal]] (r. 668–627 BC), under its kings [[Milkiasaph]] and [[Yehawmelek]].{{citation needed|date=September 2024}}
