Sesostris

The Greek name for the Egyptian king, Rameses II who ruled Egypt in the fourteenth century BCE.

Rameses led his armies into eastern Europe and left columns proclaiming his victories and offering complements or insults to the bravery or cowardice of the inhabitants of the lands he conquered; Herodotus thought that a remnant of Sesostris’ army settled the land of Kolkhis (Colchis) on the Euxine (Black Sea) and that the so-called Greek inhabitants were really of Egyptian descent.
