 The Israelite Exodus from Egypt
There is no agreement on the location of Pthom among scholars, but Raamses is usually agreed upon to be a Hebrew rendering of the Egyptian royal name Ramesses, and as a place name it is thought to be Egyptian Piramesses, the extensive Delta capital built by Ramesses II.

In the last lines of this inscription, carved on a stela set up to commemorate Merenptah's victory over the Libyans in his fifth year on the throne (about 1209 or 1208 BC), the king boasts of his victories over various peoples and places in Syria-Palestine.
