Riassunto

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Battle of Djahy was a major land battle between the forces of pharaoh Ramesses III and the Sea Peoples who intended to invade and conquer Egypt. The conflict occurred somewhere on the Ancient Egyptian Empire''s easternmost frontier in Djahy or modern day southern Lebanon, in the eight year of pharaoh Ramesses III or about c.1178 BC. In this battle, the Egyptians, led personally by Ramesses III, defeated the Sea Peoples who were attempting to invade Ancient Egypt by land and sea. Almost all that we know about the battle comes from the mortuary temple of Ramesses III in Medinet Habu. The description of the battle and prisoners is well documented on temple walls where we also find the longest hieroglyphic inscription known to us. On temple reliefs, we can see many bound prisoners defeated in that battle.
