Can you do a video on Seti 1
Apparently they forgot Cleopatra! then I'll have to reserect her by saying:::: Ancient spirits of Egypt, transform this Egyptian case to Cleopatra Queen 👑 of Egypt.
@@bradleyneal5886 I regret not making videos on Seti I and Amenhotep III
Omg thanks so much for this now I get to know the order 😍
What
to live 90 years in ancient times without modern medicine is pretty impressive, to have ruled for 66 of those years is equally as impressive
I agree totally
He lived to the riped age of 99 years
There is a theory that humans used to be tall as coconut trees and lived more than 1000 years .
Yeah,lives 98,1/2.y.o..but 8 1/2can t count becouse was child hood not time of his Kingdom.. in Aegipet (old Egipt).😊😊😊@@chikezieJack
@@niessin1483 They were giants but humans, we can still see their DNA in most South Sudanese
The man that controls what's written about himself always seems great
Peoples social media bio:
you're goddamn right
Academics of history does not work that way. Multiple sources and lots of skepticism is involved. We can talk about what constitute “great” sure, but the multiple disciplines who deliberate on what is history does not go by propaganda, alone. R2 stoped the “sea peoples”, a good thing at the time.
Very true!
He was a king not a pharaoh
Someone delete this comment
I was waiting for you to do this one. Thank you for the consistently extremely high quality videos.
Every video on your channel looks like it was done with a full studio budget.
Thanks very much
Ramesses the cursed
And a sign for humanity
You liers the first pheroes was not white they was people of black color that's why they break Norses to hide the truth
I loved that the leaders actually participated in the wars back then.. wish we could go back to that
I agree 😆
Merneptah after outliving his brothers: Long have I waited
Exactly! It must've been a great feeling
I want to be Ramzes II ,nowdays it was great builder and conqueror,but i was think great builder was in Keops time,,but I was wrong.Also he is only pharOus who get passport.Olso he spent 2 billons dolara in his project of temple obeliks,city,etc,also rules over 67 years,so only pharaohs who deserve name the greatest pharaohs of anicent egypt 👍
Thanks for watching
Yes he was rich and successful but let’s not forget that The guy was an arrogant oppressive maniac who killed babies and proclaimed that he was a god.
at the time of keops they were kings then we had the time of pharaos. it's a different civilisation. the kings had some kind of more power
Thanks for the great overview. It seems that it wasn't really necessary for Ramesses to carve his own cartouche onto the statues and buildings of his predecessors, as his own achievements ended up outshining them all. He's ancient Egypt's overachiever.
That's very true! Thanks for watching!
@@HistoryExplained Read Qur'an and research on it you will get all answers! Ramesses II was one of the most tyrannist ruler of all time.
@@manishabintmusa5179WAS WAS HE A GREAT TYRANT RULER??
@@gloriouse4458 Yes, he was one of the most heinous & tyranny ruler!
Manisha, Read research works by historians not a religious book for knowing history.
I'm a simple man. I see History Explained, I click.
Happy to hear!
Such an OUTSTANDING PRESENTATION!!! Thank you
I appreciate that Kirk!
What is really incredible is that you can visit his body in the Cairo Museum and gaze face to face with this great man from history. - not a statue or a picture, his actual old face and whispy grey hair.
He wasn't great at all though, did you watch te video? He was a narcissist and deserved to be smashed to pieces.
The Quran mentions that the preservation of his body is a sign from Allah
@@kyriejames5001 no way his life doesn’t line up with the story of musa at all
@@wanderingstar5270 they found sea water in his body and organs
So he died in the sea
@@fardeenhasan7474 I hear that quite a bit but actually all mummies have natron, a type of mineral salt that is used to dry out bodies for mummification. There is no particular salt from the sea found in his body.
Many organs, including the lungs, are removed from the body during the process of mummification - they are placed in jars beside the body and therefore don’t really stay preserved.
I don’t blame you for thinking that his body was full of sea salt or that he was found in the sea. These things are often repeated over the internet but they are just not accurate or true.
Glad to see another video from you👌
Thanks so much!
@@HistoryExplained ❤️
Great video!
Fantastic quality as always! 👍👍👍
Thank you Dennis!
A good start. One could really make a whole series on Ramesses II.
Thank you professor. They really could!
Christian Jacq has made a series of books in novel form, from the youth of Ramses until his death. He is an Egyptologist, the books are full of details of what life was like at that time.
Another excellent video. Great work ^^
Thank you Akernis!
Your first sponsorship, congrats!
Also, great video as always :)
I appreciate that very much! Thanks! :)
Glad you are still making. :)
Happy to hear it!
This was a great video! Keep up the good work, sir!
Thank you very much
Special thanks for appreciating the Egyptian culture by depicting them perfectly as north africans just like what modern egyptians look like without being black washed nor white washed.
Good point but it think its Black folks who have a hard time adapting to a culture thats not condusive to there features or there skin color.... Egpyt shold be enjoyed and honored for their culture legacy nuetral in all its peculiarities of a culture.
Ancient Egypt/Khemet (it was only started to be called Egypt after Alexander of Macedonia took the kingdom) was conquered by many of the surrounding kingdoms over it's 3 000 years existence. So it would stand to reason that the kingdom would be made up of people who could trace their ancestry to multiple ethnic groups from Africa, the Mediterranean area and the Middle East. Placing modern concepts of race on an ancient kingdom like Egypt/Khemet isn't reasonable.
@@gerardrbain1972 what are you talking about ?
Some researches based on genotypes declare thet modern egyptians has more sub Saharan african genes than ancient Egyptians
@@manitheman0806 Ancient Kemet was black 😒 and you got nerve to refute with debunked false information please carry on

Thank you so much for uploading this video. This video was a great learning fodder for my upcoming history exam :)
Good luck on your history test!
Saw you promoting your channel in a comment from a Kings & Generals video. Well done. Keep up the fine work. I'll check out your Hammurabi video when I get time.
I appreciate that
This channel is so underrated
I appreciate that!
Great Episode!!
Thank you veryt much!
Wow, this came out unexpectedly! Anyways, Great Episode! So, next I think is Ashurbanipal?
Thanks Adam. Yes he's next!
Thank you for another fine video.
Thanks for watching Lynn
Ancient Egypt is one of the most difficult topic in World History, it is really vague and so many names and Gods' are involved. Thank you for your vids it helps a lot.
Oh yes, those Gods. Egypt loved many of them. Just as other Ancient civilizations. And, if they were not enough, some Pharaohs included themselves as a god.
Yet the Quran mentions Ramesses with such detail 1400 years ago.
I’m glad you enjoyed them
@@notmortal_ the quran is another piece of manmade fiction please dont get fooled
@@Slit.ur.neck.homophobes you are the one fooled. You are the type of guy to subscribe to ex muslims who think that its a qualification to be ex muslim and they say stupid things about the Quran that are so easily refuted

Thank you very much!!
@@HistoryExplained Is there any Historical evidence that he fought the Hebrews of his time?
Shelley's famous poem 'Ozymandias' is based on Ramesses II.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing
Ozymandias is what the ancient greeks called Rameses when they heard stories or him from native egyptians.
Great video!
Thank you!
Love you're channel from egypt I hope to see videos about less famous Pharaohs
Thank you Omar!
"the pirates were capture and taken to Egypt where they were forced to be bodyguards to the pharaoh for the rest of their lives" what?
how does that make sense? i think i prefer Caesars handling of pirates, he had the right idea.
I also found that weird, but apparently it worked neh ? 😁
Why not? They got money, work and Pharaoh got soldiers.
@The Imperishable Star i'm not saying don't use them as slaves or don't use them as soldiers. i'm saying using pirates that you captured and enslaved as bodyguards is incredibly stupid. these people hate you with a burning passion and all want to kill you so why would you want them to be in charge of your security?
sure it worked out somehow but man what an insane gamble.
@The Imperishable Star one thing to use slaves as cannon fodder, an entirely different one to use them as your personal bodyguard 😉
@The Imperishable Star yea it does work that way, putting people who want to kill you in charge of your safety is fucking stupid, literally anyone other then them would be a better choice. just because it ended up working out for Ramesses doesn't make it any less stupid. stop trying to justify such a stupid decision.
Another great presentation, and another great portrait.
Thank you!
Thanks very much Steve!
@@HistoryExplained your site is a treasure.
In the movie the ten commandments Ramesses II is shown as an arrogant, pompous ass who is undone by his own hubris. His flaws notwithstanding he is the pharaoh of all pharaohs, the one who shaped his time like no other and the one we remember. Almost as famous as his contemporary Moses in his own right.
Well done. Thanks.
You’re welcome :)
I like learning about agent Egypt 😊
Yes, I like it so much!
Saw Rameses II when in Charlotte. Fascinating and Charleton Heston.. Could not begin to describe it
That’s awesome!
He knew that once he ascended to the afterlife, Egypt would be in trouble without his leadership so he made it his sworn duty to crush as many of his enemies as possible so that his people could live peacefully and prosper after his death. Unfortunately this faltered when later pharaohs proved to be weak and ineffective eventually leading to the collapse of the Egyptian kingdom thus paving the way for the Greek Ptolemaic Dynasty.
Great point Seth!
Although Cleopatra did put up one hell of a fight against Rome.
@@thepanda1044 True, but it was sadly in vain. Caesar's armies crushed the Ptolemaic Egyptian forces and her library in Alexandria was burned to the ground. Also, many think that Marcus and Cleopatra were lovers but this has since been disproven, Marcus Antonius was a spy for Caesar and only wanted to seduce The Queen Of The Nile for military secrets, he was partly responsible for her demise in truth.
Your channel and Kings and Generals' channel I'm most fond of: as I enjoy these kind of biographs. Easy and simple.
I agree it!
Awesome
"KING RAMMMSEEEESSS! The man in gauze, the man in gauze!" -Courage the Cowardly Dog

The wealthiest and mightiest of all pharaohs but like Pepi II a millenia before he ruled far too long.
With his descendants being old when they came to power Egypt entered in a period of political crisis until the ascension of the 20th dynasty.
Perfectly put.
That's interesting. Thanks for sharing
Kinda like what happened with the reign of Edward III.
Egypt didn’t have pharaohs

As a copt I appreciate you using pictures of pharaohs look like us
I'm happy you think so!
@@HistoryExplained please why in your videos you don't show the real statues or the authentic representation of the pharaohs which exist and which are available on the internet easily and for free or in the museums but you show us photoshop and drawings made on photoshop? do you prefer photoshop to the reality ?
@@manimano435Because these images bring their faces to life, bro. It's a really cool differential of this channel. And honestly in all the videos i've seen, these faces are very historically accurate

this vid was so cool
He had 200 wives and a 100 children. And he outlived most of them. Hats off to him.
Yes very impressive!
200 wives funeral
Along with 100 children funeral
😭
Ramses lost his children due to the curse from the Lord. That was the time frame that Moses was saying: let my people go.
@@4OR-Designsdifferent Pharaoh, not this one
*Ozymandias. The Great Ancestor. The Pharaoh of Pharaohs. Sire of forty-eight sons and fifty-three daughters. The last great God-King of Egypt.*
*Ramesses the Great's superlatives are literally endless.*
No, Ramesses III was the last great Pharaoh.
He saved Egypt from the sea peoples and made great construction projects ,like Medinet Habu.
@@carlosaugustodinizgarcia3526
Ramesses III presided over an Egypt in decline, thanks to the Bronze Age Collapse which deprived Egypt of its trading partners. Most of his 'construction projects' really just entailed him erasing the name of a previous pharaoh from a monument and chiseling his name over it.
Also, Ramesses III was murdered by one of his minor wives so she could put her son by Ramesses on the throne.
Thanks for sharing
@@monadsingleton9324 Ramesses III in My opinion definitely deserves more credit for being Egypt’s last great ruler in my opinion he is the only one of the Ramesside kings to have ever come lose to matching the achievements of Ramesses II I mean Ramesses III literally fought off a large scale invasion from the Sea people which was both a land battle and a navel battle he also fought off at least Two Libyan Invasions and if you done the research Ramesses III also revamped many of the Temples in Egypt and gave major donations to them as well he also began the construction of A temple to Khonsu In the prentice of Karnak Temple as well as the construction of his own mortuary temple Medinet habu and when you say that Ramesses III reign entailed him erasing the name of a previous pharaoh from a monument that’s actually more like what Ramesses II did during his Reign in fact one of the many titles that Egyptologist give Ramesses II is the The Great chiseler I mean Ramesses II Is known to have had parts of his fathers temple in abydos walled off so that he could have more space to stamp and carve his name and image in fact many of the statues credited to Ramesses II where actually usurped from other 12th dynasty Pharaohs as well as a few of the statues where also usurped from Amenhotep III

I very much appreciate that Semisi
That was superb! Thank you very much!!
I appreciate that!
Interesting video
Thanks Peter
The Sherden are an interesting group, just one part of the multitude that was the Sea Peoples. I wonder if they really did originate as pirates from Sardinia, a sort of Bronze Age Vikings, or whether they originally came from another land and finally settled on Sardinia as a home after their wanderings as part of the Sea Peoples. Then again it could be a simple coincidence as far as the etymology goes - land of the Sherden - Sherdinia = Sardinia.
I never made that connection. It's very interesting how similar the names are.
The genetic strains found on Sardinia may reveal a few answers for you there ... and this is only vague recall that it's worth looking into.
@@HistoryExplained the sherden battle described took place as one of the sea people defense battles 60 years thats mixed upm
This Ramses bloke seems like a humble guy.
The most humble! 😅
I just wanted to say thank you for
your content.
And another special thanks for u for well representing our history without white or black washing it. Sending regards from Egypt.
I really appreciate you saying that :)
😂😂😂 Ancient Kemet were black skinned or brown just like east africans... Racism is a cancer
Look at the big sphinx face does it look like white, arab or Chinese?
4.24 - Ramses account of the battle at Kadesh against the Hittites apparently exaggerated amazes me how modern day scholars found out the truth, you gotta wonder how it is possible
Whatever criticism is heaped upon Ramesses ll one thing is for sure: He was a masterful politician and thoroughly controlled his country. Not bad for approximaty 3,300 years ago.
Great point!
Ramesses 2 was doomed in the sea after he was denying God almost 40 years and slaved Israelites. He challenged the one of the greatest messenger Musa AS and paid the price .
@@muhubobulhan6318 Didn't he live to be 90? Most Egyptologists that I've read put him in his 80s. I saw a documentary long ago that placed the cause of his death on a tooth infection that spread into his jaw and face. No antibiotics, no chance. If true, his death was pure agony.
@@Tomatohater64 there were sea salt traces on his body when he was operated on in France to prevent his body from decaying which suggests that he died from drowning since ancient Egyptians usually used natron salt to mummify.
@@drali230 I think this will be debated by the experts for a long time to come unless something more full proof appears.
The man lived like a king for sure 🤷♂️
Yes!

Aren't modern Egyptians mostly arabs, the arabs conquered that land. The ancient Egyptians were different people than the modern ones.
@@greenspidey the arabs were just 4000 that came into egypt, so technicaly egyptians didnt change
You do know rammesses II is firaun in the Quran the most corrupt man ever right?
@@greenspidey No the DNA of the actual Egyptian prouve that it is the same population : North African.
The true biblical Egyptians and the 12 tribes of Israel were black people. the black people in western, central, south, and east Africa. The west and the world need to stop spreading their propaganda lies. When Yahshua comes back. everyone will see and accept the truth. YOU PEOPLE IN THE WEST, EAST, HAVE TRIED TO COVER UP BLACK HISTORY BUT YOU WILL NOT SUCCEED IN DOING IT. You people have lied to the whole world. You take the Torah(holy bible) and whitewash it. you take black history and whitewash it. if you guys could take Egypt out of the continent of Africa, you would. just to cover up your generational lies and deceit. the ancient city of Atlantis is in the continent of africa.b
Nefertari's nickname is so sweet.
Yes very sweet!
@@HistoryExplained He even built a temple for her in which her statues show her cosplaying as HATHOR. ^_^ He was so sweet to her!
He was so very thoughtful ❤️
@@HistoryExplained I know!
Awesome, I wish I could have lived his life. Total utter respect. Something I never get. Only from my pet dog.
Was just reading about him today starting in genesis. I always been fascinated with the history of the Pharoah
Ikr
Ramses isn't in the Bible, arguably based on exodus 1:11 but I strongly disagree
His reign was most prosperous of the ancient egypt
Yes exactly!
I don't know history very much but i've read that the last great pharaoh was Ramses iii, but i also read that Cleopatra was the last pharaoh ever. So what is the catch???
One is the greatest pharaoh ever and the other is the final pharaoh ever.
Criteria is the plural form of criterion, thus ‘by that criterion…’ (6:37)
You're correct! 😅
Nefertari was allegedly very active in the political sphere as well. She corresponded directly with Pudahepa, queen of the Hittites, and following the Kadesh peace treaty helped to arrange Ramses’ marriage to one of Pudahepa’s daughters.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing!
I like it
Thank you!
Ram everywhere ❤
Another fantastic video.
The story of the Egyptian-Hittite Treaty is so sad to me. They promised each other the world, but in the end when the wolves were at the Hittites' door, Egypt wasn't in a position to help. I'll always wonder whether Ramesses III would have sent help if he could.
Thank you very much!
Good question. I think that he would’ve if able. Random idea but it would make for a fun alt-history video to explore if Egyptians & Hittites joined forces to locate the Sea Peoples and destroy them in their own lands
@@HistoryExplained It would be a VERY fun project once we swat away all the "Sea peoples = Atlantis" folks ;)
😂
The Ittite empire destroyed itself, together with famine, no one else was involved. They did sent request for food to Egypt, in desperation. They lived in a harsh land prone to crop failure, to this days nobody lives there.
Actually, Egypt did send food aid to the Hittite empire. The support was not enough to save the Hittites.
wow such an amazing video. although I was really hoping to hear about exodus in your video. but maybe it's a conspiracy or not authenticated that exodus took place in his era.
I appreciate your nice words Hassan!
Plz prepare a video on Darius the great.
Old Ramesses should look older. The nose and ears get longer, and he'd look much like he does in mummy form when near death, I would say. Especially considering he lived into his 80s, didn't he?
Thanks!
And for another view: I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said-"Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
‘My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away." Ozymandias was the Greek name for Ramses 11.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing

You may be right. Thanks for sharing
Another fact that shows he wasn’t the one who faces Moses. Almost 600 years of difference. Too many errors in the Bible’s translations.
I agree.
And the only True Book Quran said ,
فَالۡيَوۡمَ نُـنَجِّيۡكَ بِبَدَنِكَ لِتَكُوۡنَ لِمَنۡ خَلۡفَكَ اٰيَةً ؕ وَاِنَّ كَثِيۡرًا مِّنَ النَّاسِ عَنۡ اٰيٰتِنَا لَغٰفِلُوۡنَ
(10:92) We shall now save your corpse that you may serve as a sign of warning for all posterity,although many men are heedless of Our signs"
Even today the place, where the dead body of Pharaoh was found floating, is pointed out by the inhabitants of that region. It lies on the western coast of the Sinai Peninsula and is now known by the name of Jabl-i-Firaun (Pharaoh’s Mount). There is also near to it a hot spring called Hammam-i-Firaun (Pharaoh’s Bath), which is situated at a distance of a few miles from Abu Zenimah, where, they say, Pharaoh’s dead body was found lying.
If the Pharaoh who was drowned was Mineptah, who ruled over Egypt when Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) was sent to him, his embalmed dead body is still lying in the Cairo Museum. When Sir Grafton E. Smith removed the bandages from his mummy, a layer of salt was found on the body, which was a clear proof that he was drowned in the sea.
93. That is, We show signs to the people over and over again so that these should serve as warnings and be the means of teaching them lessons, but it is a pity that they do not learn lessons even from such signs as the dead body of Pharaoh.
