Ramses II was a man of many names, and he was often known as the “Keeper of Harmony and Balance, Strong in Right, Elect of Ra.” He was considered to be one of the closest people to the sun gods, and he was renowned as a military leader.
Because he lived to be 96 years old, Ramses II had the time and the power to truly make an impact on the world around him. His life and reign have been depicted in stories and scripture over the years, and statues have been found across Egypt. However, many of these had been badly damaged.
