Disclaimer: Some of this video such as the battle movements and locations are speculation. However, all speculation is based on solid information on Egyptian and sea people tactics as well as army compositions. In addition to that there were previous naval battles, but there is very little information on these battles.

The battle of the delta is one of the first recorded naval battles, and the only of those battles recorded in any detail. The battle occurred approximately 1175 BC or roughly 3,200 years ago near the mouth of the Nile river. In this battle archers onshore played a critical role in the Egyptian defense of the Nile.

The battle was a resounding Egyptian victory with the sea people defeated and both their army and fleet destroyed and burned by the Egyptians.

Information is derived from a number of historical sources including websites, historians, and literature. The fog of history is a real thing, even relatively recent events often have sources in disagreement or relying on one another. When possible information is derived from first-hand sources and where not possible information is found by taking multiple second-hand sources. It is not possible for anyone to guarantee perfect historical accuracy, but I do my absolute best to ensure that all information in my videos is well sourced and backed up by historical sources and evidence.
