Pelusium
Pelusium was an important city in the eastern extremes of Egypt's Nile Delta, 30 km to the southeast of the modern Port Said, becoming a Roman provincial capital and Metropolitan archbishopric, remaining a multiple Catholic titular see.
Location
Pelusium lay between the seaboard and the marshes of the Nile delta, about two and a half miles from the sea. The port was choked by sand as early as the first century BC, and the coastline has now advanced far beyond its ancient limits, so that the city, even in the third century AD, was at least four miles from the Mediterranean.
The principal product of the neighbouring lands was flax, and the linum Pelusiacum (Pliny's Natural History xix. 1. s. 3) was both abundant and of a very fine quality. Pelusium was also known for being an early producer of beer, known as the Pelusian drink. Pelusium stood as a border-fortress, a place of great strength, on the frontier, protecting Egypt as regards to Syria and the sea. Thus, from its position, it was directly exposed to attack by any invaders of Egypt; it was often besieged, and several important battles were fought around its walls.

The Battle of Pelusium: a Persian Victory Decided by Cats
The Battle of Pelusium was a battle waged between Ancient Egypt under Pharaoh Psametik III and Cambyses II, King of the Achaemenid Persian Empire. The most recognisable feature is the Persian victory due to Cambyses’ use of animals (especially cats), and the image of the goddess Bastet to win the war. The battle resulted in the first Persian conquest of Egypt, and Persia was victorious because of Cambyses’ knowledge of Egyptian culture, although it is thought that he probably would have won anyway with his greater experience in war compared to Psametik. Because Cambyses II knew of the Egyptian culture, he knew of their veneration of the goddess Bastet, so he had the image of the goddess painted onto the shield of his soldiers, and before the front line herded a number of animals that the...

Cats on Shields: The Battle of Pelusium That Time Persia Conquered Egypt With Cats
The Battle of Pelusium is one of the funniest battles in world history. The Persian Empire actually conquered Ancient Egypt by tying cats to their shields. In today the History Channel Guy explains how the Battle of Pelusium became one of the funniest battles in world history.

Guess how the Persians First Conquered Egypt? 😱
In 525 BC, the Persian Empire, led by King Cambyses II, invaded Egypt. They defeated the Egyptian army at the Battle of Pelusium and took control of Egypt. When the Persian Empire conquered Egypt, it was the largest empire in the world. Egypt then became a "satrapy" (like a province) of the Persian Empire. The leaders of the satrapy became known as the Twenty-Seventh Dynasty. Persia ruled over Egypt for 100 years. Egypt prospered under the rule of the Persian King Darius I. Darius built temples and presented himself like a pharaoh to Egypt. However, later Persian leaders, such as Xerxes, treated Egypt cruelly causing much inner turmoil and rebellion.

Upon seeing their beloved goddess on the shields of their enemies, and worrying that they would injure the animals in front of the Persian forces, the Egyptian army surrendered.

The Battle of Pelusium: When Cats Became Shields
Have you ever heard of the war where cats were used as shields? In the Battle of Pelusium in 525 BCE, the Persian king Cambyses II used a very unusual strategy to defeat the Egyptians: he used cats as shields.
Cats were sacred to the Egyptians and closely associated with the goddess Bastet. Cambyses II knew this and used it to his advantage. He and his soldiers captured several cats, and used them as shields in their attack on the city of Pelusium. The Persian army herded cats in front of their battle line, and even painted cats onto their shields.
The Egyptians were afraid to hurt the sacred cats and incur the wrath of Bastet. They were shaken by this tactic, and were decisively defeated.
If you are curious about the history of the Roman Empire, Ottoman Empire, and many other Empires and Kingdoms, you are in the right place!

Egypt prospered under the rule of the Persian King Darius I. Darius built temples and presented himself like a pharaoh to Egypt. However, later Persian leaders, such as Xerxes, treated Egypt cruelly causing much inner turmoil and rebellion.

The Battle of Pelusium was a battle waged between Ancient Egypt under Pharaoh Psametik III and Cambyses II, King of the Achaemenid Persian Empire. The most recognisable feature is the Persian victory due to Cambyses’ use of animals (especially cats), and the image of the goddess Bastet to win the war. The battle resulted in the first Persian conquest of Egypt, and Persia was victorious because of Cambyses’ knowledge of Egyptian culture, although it is thought that he probably would have won anyway with his greater experience in war compared to Psametik.
Because Cambyses II knew of the Egyptian culture, he knew of their veneration of the goddess Bastet, so he had the image of the goddess painted onto the shield of his soldiers, and before the front line herded a number of animals that the Egyptians held dear to them, including dogs and cats. Upon seeing their beloved goddess on the shields of their enemies, and worrying that they would injure the animals in front of the Persian forces, the Egyptian army surrendered.

In 525 BC a battle was fought not far from the Nile Delta. By the town of Pelusium. The Battle of Pelusium. The fate of Egypt hung in the balance. The forces of the Persian King Cambyses II invaded Egypt and were met by the Egyptian forces and their pharaoh Psamtik III. The battle is of great importance since it marks the end of Egypt’s independence as they suffered a brutal defeat. 50.000 egyptians are said to have lost their lives during the struggle. But it is also one of the earliest forms of psychological warfare to be recorded. This was the fall of Egypt. The fall of the Pharaohs.

The Battle of Pelusium: When Cats Became Shields
Have you ever heard of the war where cats were used as shields? In the Battle of Pelusium in 525 BCE, the Persian king Cambyses II used a very unusual strategy to defeat the Egyptians: he used cats as shields.
Cats were sacred to the Egyptians and closely associated with the goddess Bastet. Cambyses II knew this and used it to his advantage. He and his soldiers captured several cats, and used them as shields in their attack on the city of Pelusium. The Persian army herded cats in front of their battle line, and even painted cats onto their shields.
The Egyptians were afraid to hurt the sacred cats and incur the wrath of Bastet. They were shaken by this tactic, and were decisively defeated.
If you are curious about the history of the Roman Empire, Ottoman Empire, and many other Empires and Kingdoms, you are in the right place!

In 525 BC, the Persian Empire, led by King Cambyses II, invaded Egypt. They defeated the Egyptian army at the Battle of Pelusium and took control of Egypt.
When the Persian Empire conquered Egypt, it was the largest empire in the world. Egypt then became a "satrapy" (like a province) of the Persian Empire. The leaders of the satrapy became known as the Twenty-Seventh Dynasty. Persia ruled over Egypt for 100 years.
Egypt prospered under the rule of the Persian King Darius I. Darius built temples and presented himself like a pharaoh to Egypt. However, later Persian leaders, such as Xerxes, treated Egypt cruelly causing much inner turmoil and rebellion.
Pelusium
Pelusium was an important city in the eastern extremes of Egypt's Nile Delta, 30 km to the southeast of the modern Port Said, becoming a Roman provincial capital and Metropolitan archbishopric, remaining a multiple Catholic titular see.
Location
Pelusium lay between the seaboard and the marshes of the Nile delta, about two and a half miles from the sea. The port was choked by sand as early as the first century BC, and the coastline has now advanced far beyond its ancient limits, so that the city, even in the third century AD, was at least four miles from the Mediterranean.
The principal product of the neighbouring lands was flax, and the linum Pelusiacum (Pliny's Natural History xix. 1. s. 3) was both abundant and of a very fine quality. Pelusium was also known for being an early producer of beer, known as the Pelusian drink. Pelusium stood as a border-fortress, a place of great strength, on the frontier, protecting Egypt as regards to Syria and the sea. Thus, from its position, it was directly exposed to attack by any invaders of Egypt; it was often besieged, and several important battles were fought around its walls.

You Are Okay
by: VroomI've been reading what they say in the news
Hoping that I hear back from you
I wrote you this letter of explanation
A look at things from my point of view
It's a matter of supply and demand
Field research and capital gains
Success is just a product of sex and money
I've got the looks; they've got the brains
It's a necessary part of the job
Get maybe just a little involved
But most of our dealings were strictly business
I just wanted to know
If' you're okay and it's all right
Everybody's talking about
Who's with who and who's making out
Wouldn't we be better off making music
Instead of all this sleeping around?
'Cause everyone here has a mistress
It's such a dirty business
If we put our heads together
The songs will live forever
I gotta get out of this hell-hole
I'm packing my things and I'm coming home
You're okay and it's alright
You're okay, is this alright,
if I put my hand on your thigh?
