Pharaoh Merneptah – His Giant Sarcophagus And Unique Victory Stele
AncientPages.com | April 17, 2018
AncientPages.com - Pharaoh Merneptah was Ramesses II’s 13th son. He succeeded his father when he was in his early sixties and reigned for ten years between 1213 B.C – 1203 B.C.
Greatly overshadowed by his dominant and long-lived father, Merneptah never had a chance to become a famous pharaoh and he was almost unknown for most of his life. Yet, many Egyptologist think Merenptah was probably the real power behind the throne in the last decade of Ramesses II's life.
