The Great Wall of Prince Merneptah
The Great Wall of Prince Merneptah refers to a series of defensive fortifications built during the rule of Merneptah, an ancient Egyptian pharaoh of the 19th dynasty around 1200 BCE. This wall was constructed to protect the eastern borders of Egypt from invasions and raids, particularly by nomadic tribes. Although it is not as famous as the Great Wall of China, it reflects the military strategies of ancient Egypt, emphasizing the importance of safeguarding territories and maintaining security in a time of potential conflict. Remnants of these walls can still be found in Egypt today.
