For thousands of years Egypt was ruled by Pharaohs and foreign invaders keen to harvest the great wealth and resources of the mightiest civilization in the world. A land as vast and vulnerable as Egypt needed an army and navy of considerable size, strength and skill to protect itself. It also needed to be ruthless and brutal to conquer neighboring territories.
Sometimes it couldn't quench the mass and destruction of invading armies. But sometimes it provided its citizens with the stimulus and passion to follow their Pharaoh into battle against insurmountable odds.
This group is for the discussion of warfare in Ancient Egypt and all it entails - from the blood lust of conquest, to the exhilaration of victory, the humdrum of daily army life and the slavery of prisoners.
Welcome to Camp Karnak !

Good job, Dillan. I can tell that you're enjoying all the interesting things you're learning about Egypt. I hope you like your Egyptian archer's costume that we made. I finished sewing the coat tonight so that part is finished! Be sure to have Mom take some pictures of you in your costume!
