Samaria, an ancient region in the central part of modern-day Israel, was primarily inhabited by the Israelites, particularly the northern kingdom of Israel. After its conquest by the Assyrian Empire in the 8th century BCE, the area became home to a mix of various peoples, including Assyrians, Babylonians, and later, Greeks and Romans. The Samaritans, a distinct religious and ethnic group, emerged from the remnants of the Israelites who remained in the region, maintaining their own traditions and beliefs. Over time, Samaria became a culturally diverse area due to its strategic location and historical conquests.
