Book excerpt: The army in ancient Egypt: Military History of Ancient Egypt The first regular army in the world was established in Egypt, and it was established around 3200 BC. This was after King Mina united Egypt. Before that year, every Egyptian governorate had its own army to protect it, but after the Egyptian War of Unification, —3— Egypt had a unified army under the command of the King of Egypt. The Egyptian army was the most powerful army in the world, and thanks to it, the Egyptians established the first empire in the world, which was the Egyptian Empire that stretched from Turkey in the north to Somalia in the south, and from Iraq in the east, to Libya in the west, and that was the golden age of the Egyptian army.

Book Synopsis Tutankhamun's Armies by : John Coleman Darnell
Download or read book Tutankhamun's Armies written by John Coleman Darnell and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-08-03 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The force that forged an empire. The furious thunder of thousands of hooves, the clatter and sheen of bronze armor sparkling in the desert sun, the crunch of wooden wheels racing across a rock-strewn battlefield-and leading this terrifying chariot charge, the gallant Pharaoh, the ribbons of his blue war crown streaming behind him as he launches yet another arrow into the panicking mass of his soon-to-be-routed enemies. While scenes like the one depicted above did occur in ancient Egypt, they represent only one small aspect of the vast, complex, and sophisticated military machine that secured, defended, and expanded the borders of the empire during the late Eighteenth Dynasty. In Tutankhamun's Armies, you'll discover the harsh reality behind the imperial splendor of the New Kingdom and gain a new appreciation for the formidable Egyptian army-from pharaoh to foot soldier. You'll follow "the heretic king" Akhenaten, his son Tutankhamun, and their three Amana-Period successors as they employ double-edge diplomacy and military might to defeat competing powers, quell internal insurrections, and keep reluctant subject states in line. This vivid and absorbing chronicle will forever change the way you think about the glories and riches of ancient Egypt.

Book Synopsis War & Trade with the Pharaohs by : Garry J. Shaw
Download or read book War & Trade with the Pharaohs written by Garry J. Shaw and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2017-08-30 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An entertaining and informative romp, from the joys of imported beer to the horror of invasion . . . demonstrates the extent of Egyptian foreign affairs.”—Ancient Egypt Magazine The ancient Egyptians presented themselves as superior to all other people in the world; on temple walls, the pharaoh is shown smiting foreign enemies—people from Nubia, Libya and the Levant or crushing them beneath his chariot. But despite such imagery, from the beginning of their history, the Egyptians also enjoyed friendly relations with neighboring cultures; both Egyptians and foreigners crossed the deserts and seas exchanging goods gathered from across the known world. War & Trade with the Pharaohs explores Egypt’s connections with the wider world over the course of 3,000 years, introducing readers to ancient diplomacy, travel, trade, warfare, domination, and immigration—both Egyptians living abroad and foreigners living in Egypt. It covers military campaigns and trade in periods of strength—including such important events as the Battle of Qadesh under Ramesses II and Hatshepsut’s trading mission to the mysterious land of Punt—and Egypt’s foreign relations during times of political weakness, when foreign dynasties ruled parts of the country. From early interactions with traders on desolate desert tracks, to sunken Mediterranean trading vessels, the Nubian Kingdom of Kerma, Nile fortresses, the Sea Peoples, and Persian satraps, there is always a rich story to tell behind Egypt’s foreign relations. “Garry Shaw’s book is something of a revelation, a different way of looking at what we know about the Ancient Egyptians and their amazing culture.”—Books Monthly “As inherently fascinating a read as it is exceptionally well researched, written, organized and presented.”—Midwest Book Review

Book Synopsis The Pharaohs early Practitioners of operational Art by : Ehab Elhadad
Download or read book The Pharaohs early Practitioners of operational Art written by Ehab Elhadad and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2023-09-21 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject World History - Early and Ancient History, grade: A+, , language: English, abstract: This research suggests that the Egyptian Pharaohs during the New Kingdom applied operational art. Accordingly, theoreticians and practitioners should date the origins of operational art at least as early as Ancient Egypt. The significance of this study is paramount, as it expands the boundaries of military history by showing that the origins of operational art do not lie exclusively within nineteenth century military conflicts in Europe and America. Additionally, it proves that operational art is a timeless phenomenon and will continue to evolve and withstand the changing conditions of future warfare. Instead of relating operational art to a specific country, military scholars should put the pieces of the operational paradigm together, starting from the early beginning to the modern times. Man’s history in the lands of the Nile extends back to the dawn of humankind and is one of the possible locations where man first crossed the line from indiscriminative violence to organized warfare. However, military historians ignore ancient Egyptians’ contribution to military art and science by relating the origins of operational art to European and American practitioners of the nineteenth century. Did the ancient Egyptian military reached a high level of sophistication, and did it practice operational art as conceived by modern military theorists during the New Kingdom of the Early Bronze Age (1550–1070 B.C.)? This work makes the case that operational art emerged during that period. This study explains how Ancient Egypt’s war machine reached a high level of sophistication through a brief examination of Ancient Egypt warfare. It then examines the Pharaohs’ campaigns in the Asiatic theatre using operational factors and elements as discussed within the current U.S. Army doctrine.

Book excerpt: Nature loved the land of Egypt as natural borders that made it isolated from the world that surrounds it in ancient times, which made the raiding of its neighbors on it one of the most difficult and difficult matters, as the desert of Libya was an impenetrable dam for every raid from the side of the western borders, while its northern coasts did not expose it to any danger In that period of its history, it had no enemies that had fleets sailing through the sea, fearful of its raids, as for the people who lived beyond its eastern and southern borders, they were less cultural and civil, so their danger to threatening its safety was something that could not be reckoned with.For this reason, the country of Egypt remained for a long period of time quiet and reassuring in its backyard, which made its people naturally work in agriculture, and they will remain so throughout their lives, and the most important work for them is to cultivate and invest the land, but all this does not mean that the Egyptian was not a warrior when needed As the conditions proved that the Egyptian soldier in the battlefield is one of the best, bravest and most patient soldiers in the world, for a period of time in its history came to Egypt that was the master of the kingdoms of the civilized world, by the strength of its armies and their great victories that placed them at the top of the nations of the East for a long time Not short.

Book Synopsis The Art of War in Pharaonic Egypt by : Brett H. Heagren
Download or read book The Art of War in Pharaonic Egypt written by Brett H. Heagren and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary objective of this thesis is to prove that by the New Kingdom the Egyptian army was practicing a rudimentary form of warfare known in current military circles as Operational Art. The acknowledgement of the concept of operational art has only been a recent development being tied closely to the awareness of an intermediate level of war, termed the operational level. It is at this level we find military actions that belong neither to the tactical nor strategic levels. In order to ascertain whether the Egyptians did indeed practice this form of warfare, this study examines the military capabilities of the Egyptian army with particular emphasis on its tactical, logistic, and operational capabilities. Each of these areas is analysed in detail and with particular reference to the three primary strategic theatres where the Egyptians campaigned: Asia; Libya; and Nubia. Overall, it is argued that the Egyptians appreciated the importance of operational level actions in their military encounters and that they themselves were practitioners of operational art especially by the New Kingdom. This would confirm that their military machine and doctrine had reached a high level of sophistication. This would also tend to argue that not only is the concept of an intermediate, operational, level of war a potentially timeless element, but that the temporal origins of operational art itself must be pushed back far earlier than previously thought.
