[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mystery Solver: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Hotep2u: [b]Now lets move on so we can get to the bottom of who are these people who gave help to the Hyksos,[/b] I must say I think Ausar is correct in saying they were probably living in the area of YAM because that place name does find it self into the Levant. [/QUOTE]Already got to the bottom of it, when Ausar mentioned the following: The term Kerma is a modern term for a village around Northern Sudan. Kush[although some dispute it] was a term that ancient Kemetians applied to regions in the Upper Nile. The town known today as Kerma is possibly the Yam of the Old Kingdom texts of Km.t. Since the people of Kerma had no writting,and Merotic is mostly undeciphered we don't know much about them except from archaeological remains. We do have some textual correspondence between the [b]Kushites[/b] and Hykos leader that was intercepted by Kamose… I believe the correspondence and Kamose aprehending the [b]Kushite[/b] messanger to the Hykos comes from the Kamose stela. You can read second hand translations of the stea in the following books: Ancient Egyptian Literature: A Book of Readings: Vol. 2, The New Kingdom (Paperback) by Miriam Lichtheim The second Stela of Kamose and his struggle against the Hyksos ruler and his capital by Labib Habachi ...or are you aware of a case different, that we don't yet know about?
