  • 214: Ramesses II The Battle of Kadesh
    Aug 15 2025
    In June of 1287 BCE (approximately), one of antiquity’s great conflicts unfolded in southern Syria. Meeting near Kadesh (Qidsha), the armies of Egypt and Hatti fought each other in a spectacular engagement. The events of that battle are recorded, somewhat grandiosely, by Ramesses II in temple art and extended hieroglyph narratives. With those as our foundation, we explore the most dramatic day in the young pharaoh’s life.

Alas, just as the recording was done (but before pickups / editing), my microphone started going on the fritz. With no time to replace it, I’m stuck with a slightly unsatisfying sound. As soon as practical, I plan to re-record this episode in a better environment. The History of Egypt Podcast: Website: www.egyptianhistorypodcast.com.

  • 213: Ramesses II Seven Nation Army
    Aug 8 2025
    Ramesses, Muwattalli, and the Trojans(?). In June of 1287 BCE, the Great Kings of Hatti and Egypt were on the verge of a major confrontation. Ramesses, marching across Sinai and into Canaan, made careful preparations for his assault on Kadesh. Alas, even the best-planned campaign could not be hidden from a watchful enemy. In Hatti, Muwattalli II sent calls to his vassals, summoning them to fight. The Hittite army, and its allies, is a remarkably well-documented force...

  • 212: Ramesses II The Arsenal of Pharaohcracy
    Aug 1 2025
    Preparing for Kadesh. In 1287 BCE (late in his fifth regnal year) King Ramesses II departed Egypt on campaign. His target? The city of Kadesh / Qidsha in southern Syria. The Kadesh campaign is famous, as one of history’s “great battles.” Today, we “set the scene,” and explore the preparations for this war. We have a surprisingly detailed picture of this, thanks to inscriptions, art, and excavations. From a new royal city, Pi-Ramesses, to the enormous scale of the army, to the diplomatic manouevres (and espionage) that would accompany this campaign… the preparations for Kadesh are almost as elaborate as the battle itself.

I’m not an Egyptologist. I’m a lowly attorney who has nothing to do with this topic.
But I’ve listened to 90% of this podcast and I find it amazing!
The man knows his stuff! And it is presented so even I understand it. I look forward to each episode.
I appreciate all the work that goes into each chapter and I look forward to what happens next.

Great listening!
