Reminth Royce III discovery in the desert of the desert

Quoted by Live Science; Archaeologists in southern Jordan have recorded a stone that contains the name of Ramses III, ancient Egyptian Pharaoh. The discovery, which was scientifically documented for the first time, shows that the Ramses III army passed the route about 5 years ago.

Ramses III, who was ruled between 1 and 2 BC, reigns at a turbulent period of history. Historical reports indicate the defeat of the “sea” and the preservation of the Egyptian empire against the invasion. He also camped in the eastern Mediterranean to expand Egypt’s influence in the region.

This inscription is located on a rocky wall near a natural fountain that makes it very difficult to access. Prior to this year, only a few researchers were aware of it, but now this monument has been officially registered and introduced by Dr. Ali al -Monasr, head of the Department of Cultural Resources and Museum of Hashemia University of Jordan.

Dr. al -Monasr says:

The importance of this discovery is not only because of the royal engraving, but because it is part of the mountain and cannot be moved. Previously there was only one Egyptian inscription in northern Jordan that was engraved on a portable stone.

The former Egyptian minister of historical monuments, who collaborate with the Jordanian research team, explains that the name “Sa’-Vara” (meaning “Ra’s son”) is engraved on this inscription; The title that connects Ramses III to the Egyptian Sun God. He added that the Pharaoh’s army had previously put a similar inscription in the Tima, a region in northwestern Saudi Arabia.

According to al -Monasr, Ramses III may have passed through this crossing to secure business routes and access to resources such as Copper – which is widely found in southeast of Jordan. With the continuation of archaeological excavations near the site, further evidence may be discovered of the presence and campaigns of the Pharaoh in the future.
