Description:
An engraved stone slab which describes Pharaoh Merneptah’s military victories in 1207 BCE. The stele itself is dated to the year 1205 BCE. It contains the earliest undisputed extra-biblical reference to Israel to date.
With 25 readable lines written in hieroglyphics, the inscription recounts Merneptah’s conquests of the land of Canaan. Part of the inscription reads:
Canaan is captive with all woe.
Ashkelon is conquered, Gezer seized,
Yanoam made nonexistent;
Israel is laid waste, bare of seed,
