Merneptah's Nubian War, the Book of Caverns, and his Legacy. The later years of Merneptah's reign were eventful. Just as the Libu war wound down, another conflict started in Nubia. Shortly after, there may have been some disruptions or reshuffling in the government. We also get a new religious text known as the "Book of Caverns." Finally, we follow Merneptah's passing and his legacy. Extended version (49m) available on Patreon. Music: Keith Zizza, Luke Chaos. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
