His reign, lasting from 664 to 610 BC, marked a critical moment in Egyptian political and military history. A key event during Psamtik I’s rule was the Fall of Ashdod, a strategic coastal city in the Levant. This event was not only a demonstration of Psamtik's military prowess but also highlighted the shifting balance of power in the Near East during the 7th century BC. But did you know that it was also one of the longest sieges in military history?</p>
