TJbe Mastiff is one of the very oldest breeds known to the British Isles. The 

 Assyrian kings possessed a large dog of decided Mastiff type and used it for lion 

 hunting. Credible authorities point to a similarity, also, between the Mastiff and the 

 fierce Molorsian of the ancient Greeks, and it is claimed by many students that the 

 breed was introduced into Britain in the sixth century B. C. by adventurous Phoenician 

 traders.
