This book brings to light a fascinating insight into ancient Egyptian military and maritime history through the discovery of a fleet from Queen Hatshepsut's reign. The discovery was made on a monument from the seventeenth century BCE which was partially restored. Perhaps even more intriguingly, sections of the monument display ancient military parades. This rare glimpse of the Egyptian navy and army is presented here in both textual descriptions and visual representations, making it an essential piece for anyone interested in ancient military and maritime history.
