Answer:
The correct answer to the question: What date on the timeline marks the beginning of the Jewish Diaspora, would be, C: c. 722 BCE.
Explanation:
The term Jewish Diaspora comes from the expulsion of the Jewish people by different nations throughout several centuries, particularly the 6th and 8th BCE, from the land of Israel, the one that, according to the Bible, had been granted to the Jews by God. The first recorded exile is known as the Assyrian exile, carried out by the Assyrian emperor, Tiglath-Pileser III in 733 BCE, but it was not completed until 722 BCE, under emperor Sargon II of Assyria. Assyria destroyed the Kingdom of Israel, which later on would be known as Samaria. The other kingdom of the Jews, was the Kingdom of Judah, from where the term Jew originated.
