EDITORS COMMENTS
This relief depicts a pivotal moment in ancient history: the Battle of Kadesh, fought between the Egyptian Empire under the reign of Pharaoh Ramses II and the Hittite Empire led by King Muwatalli II, in 1274 BC. The scene unfolds at the city of Kadesh, situated on the banks of the Orontes River. Ramses II is prominently displayed in his chariot, ready to engage in combat with the attacking Hittite forces. His charioteer stands steadfastly behind him, holding the reins, while Ramses brandishes a bow and quiver of arrows, prepared to defend his empire. The intricate details of the relief, found in the Ramesseum in the Necropolis of Thebes, showcase the military prowess and artistic skill of the 13th century, during the 19th Dynasty of Egypt's New Kingdom. The Battle of Kadesh is considered a significant turning point in Egyptian history, as Ramses II managed to repel the Hittite invasion, securing his empire's borders and cementing his legacy as a great pharaoh.
