1. Egyptian-Hittite peace treaty
Was a treaty concluded between Ramesses II and Ḫattušili III in year 21 of Ramesses's reign (c. 1258 BC). The frontiers are not laid down in this treaty, but may be inferred from other documents. The harbour town of Sumur, north of Byblos, is mentioned as the northernmost town belonging to Egypt, suggesting it contained an Egyptian garrison.
