No doubt Apries sent his ‘Egyptian’ troops, because his Greek ones could not be trusted against Greeks. The contemporary inscription (169 n.) seems to confirm H. as to the motives of the Egyptian army; ‘Haunebu (Greeks), one knows not their number, are traversing the North land . . . he (Apries) hath summoned them’ (King and Hall, p. 434).
