Synopsis

Delve into the Battle of Kadesh through the eyes of James Henry Breasted.

This edition clarifies the movements, tactics, and historical context behind Ramses II’s famous clash.

The study traces how commanders understood battlefield advantage in the fourteenth century B.C. It examines the sequence of troop positions, the pivotal moments at Shabtuna and Kadesh, and how reliefs and inscriptions shape our view of the campaign. While some details remain debated, the author presents a careful reconstruction of the action and its aftermath.
  • Learn how the Egyptians and Asiatic forces were arranged in the first, second, and third positions
  • See how Beduin reports and scouts influenced Ramses’s decisions on the ground
  • Understand how reliefs, inscriptions, and contemporary texts contribute to the narrative
  • Get editorial notes on differing scholarly views and how they shape the history
Ideal for readers of ancient history, Egyptology, and military history.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
