  • January 1212 BC: During the reign of Ramesses II, the Egyptians were evidently active on a 300 kilometers stretch along the Lybian coast, at least as far as Zawiyet Umm el-Rakham. Although the exact events surrounding the foundation of the coastal forts and fortresses is not clear, some degree of political and military control must have been held over the region to allow their construction.
