Pharaoh Seqenenre Tao II died from multiple ax wounds. He may have been killed in battle, executed afterwards, or possibly assas[s]inated. A long dagger believed to belong to his son Kamose has evidence of wear and tear, suggesting that he used it to avenge his father's death.

It always amazes me that these so called scientists or whatever you want to call them can tell us what happened 3000-5000 years ago. Yea, right. Give us a break. Some moron with a degree thinks he’s a time traveler. Science has become a joke. Unless they were there, they don’t have a clue what went on.
They would trade them all, and more, for a single 1911 model pistol and a massive supply of ammo.
For some archeologists, everything is for ritual use rather than actual use in a real-life situation.
Why would you have a ritual weapon unless its ritual use was based on a real weapon used for normal weaponry purposes?
I mean ritual weapons without a basis in fact begin to sound like a Platonic form concept, eg. if there was a real weapon out there for use, this is what it would look like.
Up until recent times, most rulers were expected to perform in battle. One of the most interesting shows I’ve ever seen was called, I think Death and Diseases of Royalty. I would love to buy all 6 parts.
There was a reason they always talked about English Monarchs being so tall and strong like Richard Lionheart- they were men who were expected to be warleaders.
