Campbell Price On The Rise Of Ramesses II

Deskripsi

The name of Ramesses the Great is etched deeper into Egypt than almost any other ruler. Colossal statues moulded in his image tower over the Nile. Reliefs of his victories are carved into countless temple walls. But where did Ramesses II come from? And how was this legend of Egyptian history born? In this episode of The Ancients, Tristan Hughes is joined by Dr Campbell Price to uncover the rise of the House of Ramesses and the century of crisis that paved the way for Egypt’s most famous pharaoh. From dynastic turmoil and religious upheaval to military revival and monumental propaganda, discover how Ramesses II seized his moment and shaped a legacy that has endured for over 3,000 years. Was he Egypt’s greatest ruler or its greatest architect of reputation? 0:00 Introduction to the 19th Dynasty 1:08 The Legacy of Ramesses the Great 4:20 The Zenith and Decline of the 18th Dynasty 10:05 Egyptian Empire and Spheres of Influence 14:55 Akhenaten’s Revolution and its Economic Impact 17:51 Tutankhamun and the Post-Amarna Recovery 20:03 Horemheb: The Military Coup and Transition 26:48 The Rise of Ramesses I and the New Line 34:12 Seti I: The Renaissance and Hall of Ancestors 37:48 Military Campaigns and the North Wall of Karnak 49:15 The Battle of Kadesh: Legend vs Reality Presented by Tristan Hughes.
