THE BATTLE OF MEGIDDO INTRODUCTION The Battle of Megiddo on May 15th, 1479 B.C. between the Egyptians under Thutmose III and the allied forces of the Syrian states is the first battle in history which we can study in any detail. Most of the ancient oriental accounts of battles are mere statements of the forces engaged and of the outcome of the conflicts. Among the Egyptian records, however, there are preserved in considerable detail the narratives of two or three engagements from which we can gather, with greater or less clearness, the general plan of each battle, the disposition of the troops and the manoeuvres of the opposing armies.1 So far these battles have been studied either without reference to the topography of the battlefields, or with insufficient data regarding the physical features of the area of operations and the bearing they must have had on the course of the engagement. In the following discussion of the Battle of Megiddo it has been my endeavor to interpret the scanty records of the conflict preserved in hieroglyphic in the light of the topography of the region, which I studied on two visits to the battlefield in the summers of 1909 and 1912. On those two occasions I mide a series of surveys and took a number of photographs which are here reproduced. They include a sufficient number of views to bear out my observations on the topography which are contained in the text of this discussion. I have used as the basis of my plan of the battlefield the excellent map in Schumacher's Tell el-Mutesellim, Band II, adding myself certain details not found on the original, especially the configuration of the hills to the west and I Besides the Battle of Megiddo, compare, for the Battle of Kadesh, Breasted, Battle of Kadeih, and for...

The cataclysmic fall of Constantinople, Vijay Nagar, Delhi (1857), and Singapore are described in gory detail.

Goedicke also presents additional sources for the major events.

Download or read book Tutankhamun s Trumpet Ancient Egypt in 100 Objects from the Boy King s Tomb written by Toby Wilkinson and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marking the one hundredth anniversary of the discovery of Tutankhamun’s magnificent tomb, its incredible treasures are revealed as never before. In 1922, after fifteen years of searching, archaeologists finally discovered the tomb of King Tutankhamun. There, buried alongside the king’s mummy, they found more than 5,000 unique objects, from the mundane to the extravagant, from the precious to the everyday. Tutankhamun’s spectacular gold mask is justifiably famous, but the rest of the treasures remain largely unknown, their stories untold. In this rich and beautifully illustrated work of history, renowned Egyptologist Toby Wilkinson allows one hundred artifacts from the boy king’s tomb to speak again—not only for themselves, but as witnesses of the civilization that created them. A gold-decorated chariot reveals the impressive scale of Egyptian technology. Loaves of bread, baskets of fruit, and jars of wine hint at the fertility of the Nile Valley and the abundant feasts enjoyed by its people. Ebony and ivory from Nubia and a jewel of Libyan desert glass show the range of Egypt’s trading and diplomatic networks. Shaving equipment and board games provide a window into the everyday lives of the people. And perhaps most poignant of all the objects in the tomb is one that conjures up a lost world of human experience: Tutankhamun’s silver trumpet. Through these treasures, Wilkinson bring us face-to-face with the culture of the pharaohs, its extraordinary development, its remarkable flourishing, and its lasting impact. Filled with surprising insights and vivid details, Tutankhamun’s Trumpet offers an indelible portrait of the history, people, and legacy of ancient Egypt.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All things work together . . . Come to me, all who are weary . . . Trust in the Lord with all your heart . . . The hairs of your head have all been counted . . . Mercy shall follow me all the days of my life. Despite decades of preaching experience, it was just a few years ago that best-selling author Robert J. Morgan (Then Sings My Soul) began to note the magnitude and frequent use of the word "all" in the Bible. Upon closer inspection, it appears to amplify many of God’s greatest truths, commands, and promises nearly six thousand times, proving itself to be what Morgan calls "the largest little word in the world." My All in All is the fruit of his unique study, a 365-day devotional that will assure readers of God’s purposes, power, and grace time and again.
