After the twelfth century BC, Egypt was successively invaded by different peoples. In 670 BC, the Assyrians conquered Egypt, dominating it for eight years. After liberating itself from the Assyrians, Egypt began a phase of economic recovery and cultural brilliance known as the Saite renaissance. This phase got its name because the Egyptian recovery was driven by the rulers of the city of Sais. Prosperity, however, was short-lived. In 525 BC, the Persians conquered Egypt. Almost two centuries later came the Macedonians, commanded by Alexander the Great, and defeated the Persians. Finally, removing Cleopath from the pharaoh's throne, Egypt was dominated by the Romans, who ruled for 600 years, until the Arab conquest.
