"History of Egypt, Chaldæa, Syria, Babylonia, and Assyria, Volume 5 (of 12)" by G. Maspero is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume explores the Eighteenth Theban Dynasty of Ancient Egypt, detailing the reigns of notable pharaohs such as Thutmosis III and Amenothes III, and their military campaigns, governance, and architectural legacies. The book offers insights into the political and cultural dynamics of the ancient Near East, particularly the relationships between various regions such as Egypt and its vassal states. The opening of the book focuses on the military exploits of Thutmosis III, detailing his campaigns to assert control over Syria and the tributary states. It describes the king's strategies in dealing with rebellions, the logistics of military supply lines, and the tribute systems enforced over conquered lands. Key battles, efforts to pacify rebellious cities, and the treatment of foreign dignitaries and hostages highlight the complexities of governance during this period. The narrative portrays the dual role of pharaohs as both military leaders and divine rulers, emphasizing how their conquests and diplomacy were instrumental in maintaining Egypt's supremacy in the ancient world.
