After claiming victory over the Hittites, Ramses II commissioned the construction of Abu Simbel temples in Nubia. These temples were carved into the mountainside and dedicated to the gods Amun-Ra and Ra-Horakhty. The temples were not only a symbol of Ramses II's military triumphs but also served as a demonstration of his power and grandeur as a pharaoh.
After claiming victory over the Hittites at the Battle of Kadesh, Ramses II agreed to a peace treaty with the Hittite king, rather than completely destroying or enslaving them. This treaty, known as the Eternal Treaty, is considered one of the earliest known peace treaties in history and helped establish a period of stability and trade between the two empires.

Yes, it is true that Ramses II, also known as Ramses the Great, engaged in prolonged conflicts with the Hittites, notably culminating in the Battle of Kadesh around 1274 BCE. Although both sides claimed victory, the battle ended inconclusively, with neither achieving a decisive defeat over the other. This stalemate ultimately led to a peace treaty, one of the earliest known in history, which allowed both empires to coexist.
Ramses II was a great military commander like his father, a warrior king who waged successful wars against Libya and Nubia and the Hittites. The Hittites were an Indo-European people who entered Mesopotamia and destroyed the Babylonian empire. The capital of the Hittite kingdom was Hattusha, now in modern Turkey. The Hittites fought Egypt for control of North Syria. The greatest achievement of Ramses was the capture of the Syrian city of Kadesh in July 1274 BC from the Hittites, which had been lost during the chaotic reign of the Heretic King Akhenaten. Scenes from this famous Battle of Kadesh, in which over 5,000 chariots were involved, are depicted in the Rock Temple of Ramses at Abu Simbel. Ramses eventually established a treaty with the Hittite Empire, although it took some years to take effect.
