Iaba, Banitu and Atalia
text:
Iaba (also called Yaba), Banitu, and Atalia were queens of the Neo-Assyrian Empire as the primary consorts of the successive kings Tiglath-Pileser III (r. 745–727 BC), Shalmaneser V (r. 727–722 BC) and Sargon II (r. 722–705 BC), respectively. Little is known of the lives of the three queens; they were not known by name by modern historians prior to the 1989 discovery of a stone sarcophagus among the Queens' tombs at Nimrud which contained objects inscribed with the names of all three women.
