    The Hyksos Expulsion, Circa 1500 BCE pushed Egypt’s political control into the Levant and created the Egyptian Empire. This video glosses over that the Egyptians , while not inventing the Chariot, took the Hyksos chariot and re- engineered it, into a much faster, more comfortable device. They moved the axle from under the center of the body until it finally ended up at the rear of the chariot. In doing so,it placed the major weight to above main pulling pole. They also re-engineered the spoked wheel from four spokes to eight spokes , then down to a high performance wheel,of six spokes that were steam bent halves of spokes and fitted to the hub by glue and the compressive strength of the steam bent rim. With the Tin/Bronze technology from the Hyksos, they not only changed their bows, but 5he arrowheads as well. And designed their own version of a bronze sword, most foot soldiers,would have just had a spear initially,however, with the addition of a sword, it would mean that the foot soldier could continue lighting in close quarters where spears were useless.

    The evidence, is that the Armo did not have the military force of the Hyksos. The Hyksos are credited with bringing the spoked wheel chariot, horses,and Tin/ Bronze weaponry, into Egypt, Circa 1750-1650 BCE. That the Armo are from the hill country is indicative of Canaanite origin and DNA from remains between Circa 1900’s- 1800 BCE are indicative of Canaanite origin. While there might be a consideration of the Hieroglyphics basically saying ruler of these people, it does not mean that they were the ruler of that land, as a political entity. Historically, peaceful coexistent settlement does not come before a militaristic takeover of a land and since the depictions are of peaceful actions, the Armo cannot be the Hyksos, the outlanders that set up their own regime in the Nike Delta at Ramses, the military garrison and Avaris, the administrative center. From there they would rule over any population already in the delta region. Since the delta was as today, the most prized agricultural land,the Hyksos could have a stranglehold over the Dynastic Pharaohs in Abydos while initially much like the prosperity of the Middle Kingdom, the Hyksos began a campaign to economically bankrupt the Dynastic leadership of all the Nubian gold. It is why egyptologists call the 15-16-7 Dynasties ad the second intermediate period. During the 17th Dynasty, Dynastic Pharaoh Tao had a principal wife of Ahmose and a secondary wife of Ahhotep. He had two sons Kamose and Ahmose. A stele from the 17th Dynasty records the conflict between the Tao and the Hyksos Pharaoh. Where it describes the first battle of Avaris during which Tao was gravely wounded and his son became Pharaoh in 1555 BCE, while his father was still alive. Kamose continued his father’s conflict.we are not certain what happened to Kamose, but his brother Ahmose became Dynastic Pharaoh in 1550 BCE and began the 18th Dynasty. A stele from the reign if Ahmose, contains a description of Darkness falling over Egypt and a great storm coming over the land. This is oddly in agreement with a similar description of Day turning to night, fire and ice falling from the sky, a pillar of smoke seen by day and of fire by night, and a great wind coming from the East. Both seem to be descriptions of the VEI 7-8+ volcanic eruption of Thera on Santorini, that has bern dated to Circa 1550 BCE.

    Joann Fletcher uses the word 'Palestine' throughout her docs on Egypt... That word was first used in the 5th century BC by Greeks... And later used by Roman's to describe the area occupied by Israelites. It was never used by Egyptians to describe that area to east of them... They would've used the word similar to Peleset to describe land to the east of them... They never used the word Palestine.

    Hammers and Chisels? Why is it the Pyramid you claim to be a Shrine for Khufu doesn't have a single cartouche dedicated to him. Why is it, that most of the Dynastic work looks like crude graffiti, and the pre-dynastic work is accurate beyond our ability to measure with modern instruments. If it was written on Papyrus, it's nothing but lies! Oh the funerary procession, so dumb. I cant wait till there's proof of Egyptian Cuckoo Civilisation, who inherited EVERYTHING and demonstrate knowledge of NOTHING. Keep up the narrative!
