In 746 B.C. Calah joined the rebels, and on the 13th of Iyyar in the following year, Pulu or Pul, who took the name of Tiglath-pileser III., seized the crown and inaugurated a new and vigorous policy.
Yukin-zera or Chinziros, 3 years Pulu (Pul or Poros), called Tiglath-pileser III.
In Babylonia, however, he continued to be known as Pulu.
The capital, Benkulen, is on the coast near Pulu Tiku, or Rat Island, in a low and swampy locality, and on an open roadstead.
