Hi, can anyone tell me the source of the ancient Egyptian’s metals, or ore (other than copper) that they required for their edged weapons.
Thanks for any help in advance.
Matthew.
This site might help. I suspect they had to trade for metals as well.
I find most logical (though still interesting) the suggestion that one of the reasons for Egypts' early expansion was the will to secure metal mines.
