Endnote 8 – The Exodus from Egypt: Myth or Reality?

The war against the Hyksos was first successfully prosecuted by the pharaoh Kamose, who recovered the territory from Thebes up to the Faiyum. See Wilson, “Egyptian Historical Texts,” ANET, for the Carnarvon tablet and Karnak stele, p. 232f; for the new stele, probably a continuation of the former, p. 554f. For further texts, see Donald B. Redford, History and Chronology of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt (Toronto: Univ. of Toronto Press, 1967), p. 36.
