The gods know the truth.
And he's carved it on the wall of the god's house.
So by writing anything in hieroglyphs, which are known as the words of the gods,
You make it so.
No, I don't think you can deceive a god.
Right.
Because a god's omniscient.
And I think he genuinely believed it.
You know, he believed that, yeah, as you said before, he snatched a victory from the jaws of real defeat.
Well, he snatched a draw from the jaws of absolute catastrophe.
In his own head, that draw is something to be proud of.
So I think that sets in motion a series of...
revisitations of the theme of victory over these vassal states in the Levant so he goes back because remember his reign is 66 years when he's young and you know he's got the fire in him he's going to go back several times as we know he does
Yes, so he keeps going back to those vassal states into what is now modern Syria.
So that's where Kadesh is.
And there are clearly...
Yeah, he's fighting against the Hittites and there are various changes in leadership.
So there does come a point in the 20s, Regnald years 20 and up, where maybe he's a little bit older and maybe he's thinking, I don't want to keep going back.
And that is when you get a more decisive treaty and you get a sense that other states in the ancient Levant are more used to compromise, whereas the Egyptians want all or nothing.
Maybe that's just the nature of what's recorded, or maybe that's actually the social reality, the political reality in other parts of the world.
