Warriors in the Egyptian Army during the Ramesside Period.

Sheridan was part of the sea people who attacked Egypt during the Ramesside period. Sheridan's invaders were the enemies of Egypt at the beginning of the reign of Ramses II, who declared victory over them. After their defeat, many of them were arrested and merged into the Egyptian army, becoming one of the best foreign auxiliaries. It was used by the Egyptians throughout Ramses' period. They served as infantry units or as a personal guard for the king. The famous inscriptions describing the Battle of Kadesh and the Battle of the Hornet during the time of Ramses II, the Libyan Merneptah war, and the Libyan and Northern wars of Ramses III, indicate the great presence of the Sherden units in the Egyptian army. This paper reviews and discusses the military role of Sheridan's warriors in the Egyptian army during the Ramesside period.
