Ancient Egyptians: The Battle of Megiddo (2003) 2 of 5

[shotime1982]

@haithamsalah1 and yes Egypt or its provinces have been attacked by akkadian, phoenicians, babylonian, hittites and many other people, that doesn't mean it was overtaken everytime. Territorial battles took place quite often in ancient times. In fact tuthmosis III was the pharaoh that expanded the territories of Egypt more than any other pharaoh before or after him. Some of those territories were eventually lost due to invasions or uprisings and rebellions later after his reign.

@haithamsalah1 "Of course, there was also mixing with the Semitic-speaking peoples (the Akkadians, Phoenicians and Hyksos, the people of Babylonia and Assyria, and later the invading Arab armies) and with Indo-Europeans (elements of the Mitanni, Hyksos, Hittites and Sea Peoples; the invading Persian Empire, the Greeks that came in Alexander's wake; then the Romans)."

The actors playing Tuthmosis III and Ahmose would be great as King Tut I think.

"Evidence of the oldest recognizable monarchy in human history, preceding the rise of the earliest Egyptian kings by several generations,has been discovered in artifacts from ancient Nubia in Africa.Various symbols of Nubian royalty that were found are the SAME as those associated, in later times, with Egyptian kings. Nubians may have reached this stage of political development as long ago as 3300 B.C.,many generations before the earliest documented Egyptian king."-New York Times, March 1, 1979
