In a military campaign against Bit Adini's king Ahuni, the Neo-Assyrian king Shalmaneser III raided and captured Surunu.〔Bryce, 2009, pp. 674-675.〕 It later came under the rule of Assyrian king Tiglath Pileser III.〔Lipinsky, 2000, pp. 210-211.〕 During the Byzantine era in Syria, Sawran was inhabited by the Arab tribe of Tanukh. Before the Muslim conquest it served an Arab Christian center and contained a fortified monastery. During early Islamic rule, Sawran was part of Jund Qinnasrin ("Military District of Chalcis"), part of the larger Bilad al-Sham province.〔Shahid, 2009, p. 404.〕
