The Harris Papyrus, dated to the reign of Ramses III
is unique in Egyptian annals.
It contains a list of all the temples and treasures of Egypt
with important exceptions, thought - erroneously - by scholars
to have simply been scribal "errors",
whereas in fact, as the Mishnayot tells us,
the greatest of temple treasures, including the Tabernacle and the
Ark of the Covenant were hidden. These were the "exceptions".
The era of classical Egypt came to end
with Ramses III, who was the Biblical Shishak.
Shishak´s cartouche (kingly hieroglyph) clearly reads Sh-Sh-K
Shishak´s wife was Asiatic (Clayton p. 164).
It is noted in Biblical literature that "Shishak" meant "a Babylonian"
because it was a reversed reading of KSS
"KASdim, Hyksos, KASSite", i.e. an Assyrian (Latvian KAZIS).
Shishak was a rival of King Solomon (Ramses II)
and supported and gave asylum to the rebel king Jeroboam.
When Solomon (Ramses II) died, one of his sons,
Rehoboam - who was Merenptah -
(Merenptah and Siptah are identical - since the sun-cow-water hieroglyph reads RA-GUOV-N and the sun-dark hole-jabiru-n hieroglyph reads RA-CH-jaBIru-N)
took power in Egypt, but the ten Northern tribes seceded,
making Jeroboam (Priam) their king at Troy (Lydia)
Jeroboam´s son was Sethnacht (Hector),
buried after his death according to Greek sources, west of Thebes,
i.e. in the Valley of Kings.
The secession of the Northern ten tribes separated Judah (the Nile Delta) from the ten (lost) tribes of Israel in the northern countries,
as noted on the Monument of Merenptah.
Judah was called Idj-taui "Nile Delta" in ancient sources
and its southern border was Beersheba, not the meaningless
Beersheba near Jerusalem of today. Solomon's seaports lay
much further to the south - so this was not the border then,
but rather Beer Es Sebua on the Brook of Egypt
- an arm of the Nile on the Delta -
and perhaps also at some time Abu-Simbel.
Judah INCLUDED Giza (Goshen)
and the Great Pyramids.
Shishak, who had supported Jeroboam deviously,
then conquered Palestine and Egypt (Judah),
taking all the temple treasures of Solomon he could find.
and he built - in honor of his victory -
a Syrian temple (a migdol) in Egypt some years later
He even had reliefs made at Karnak of what is known
in Egyptian history as the invasion of the Sea Peoples
and elsewhere as the Trojan War,
which occurred at this same time in history.
Obviously, Shishak's Assyrian (Babylonian) conquest
of southern Egypt (Judah) and the southern tribes
of the once united twelve tribes (this included many
of the cultures around the Mediterranean Sea)
brought on the Trojan War
- in which Shishak (as Ramses III) was attacked.
The resulting Trojan war led to the death of
Je- ro-bo-am (= Priam, misread as je-B-ri-am).
All the Egyptian temples were plundered and treasures stolen
(except that which the priests hid according to the Mishnayot),
for which reason there is a list of all the treasures
from the reign of Ramses III in the Harris Papyrus,
prepared at the end of Ramses III reign.
(The list is known to exclude treasures,
which scholars have thought was simply scholarly error!
but of course, these were the hidden treasures.)
The Trojan War was the end of "classical" Egypt and
of the ten northern tribes as these had existed before then.
(Troy was not occupied from 1100 to 700 BC). It was followed
by an era of looting and pillaging, as written in the "grave robber
papyri" and as described in Clayton's Chronicle of the Pharaohs
(p. 171, German edition).
The culture and knowledge of the Hebrews and Pharaohs
was thus scattered to the ends of the earth,
as were those few non-political priests
who escaped from Thebes or Troy (Lydia)
to Ostia (Etruscan Rome - Latvian Osta "port")
or Athens (Cadmos bringing "letters" with him)
and elsewhere - founding Western civilization.
Egypt went into a decay from which is has never recovered.
The remaining Hebrews went into Babylonian captivity.
