الاسم

The Egyptian name psmṯk, pronounced as Psamāṯăk,[3] was a short form of pꜣ-sꜣ-n-mṯk, meaning "the man of Meṯek", with Meṯek presumably a deity.[4]

His name was rendered by the Assyrians as Pishamilki (Akkadian:        Pišamilki[5]), by the Ancient Greeks as Psammētikhos (Ψαμμητιχος), and by the Romans as Psammētichus.

Psamtik was also called Nabu-shezibanni (Akkadian:         and        [6] Nabu-šezibanni), meaning "O Nabu, save me!"[7] by the Assyrians.

Assyrian capture of an Egyptian city from the Kushite Pharaoh Taharqa or Tantamani, possibly Memphis in 663 BCE. British Museum.[8]

In 671 BCE, the Assyrian king Esarhaddon invaded Egypt. This invasion was directed against the Kushite rulers of the Twenty-fifth Dynasty of Egypt, who had been in control of Upper Egypt, rather than against the native Egyptian rulers. The Assyrians created an administration relying on local Egyptian rulers, and put in place the twelve kinglets who formed a Dodecarchy ruling over the Nile Delta. They also formed alliances with the ruler of the city of Sais, Necho I, who was the most powerful of the Delta kinglets, as well as with Pakruru, the ruler of the important nome of Per-Sopdu.[9]

In 665 BCE, the Kushite king Tantamani invaded Lower Egypt again, and Necho I and Pakruru resisted the Kushite attack. Necho I died in battle and his son Psamtik I fled to Syria, while Pakruru became the spokesperson of the Delta kinglets during the peace negotiations with Tantamani at Memphis.[9]

The next year, in 664 BCE, the Assyrians under Esarhaddon's son Ashurbanipal invaded Egypt again, and the Assyrian army retook Memphis, proceeded with the Sack of Thebes, and expelled Tantamani from Egypt. Necho I's son Psamtik I returned to Egypt with this invading force, was installed by the Assyrians as the ruler of Sais and Memphis, and concluded with the Assyrians an adû agreement, some type of superior-inferior relation, but none of the Assyrian sources details the arrangements.[9]

حكمه

من المعلوم من كتابات مسمارية أن عشرين أميراً معينين من قبل إسارحدّون ومرسمين من قبل آشور بانيبال لحكم مصر. نخاو الأول، والد پسماتيك، كان زعيم هؤلاء الأمراء. ويبدو أن هؤلاء الأمراء فشلوا في الحفاظ على مصر للآشوريين المكروهين من السعب أمام هجمات النوبيين المحبوبين من الشعب. وحسب هيرودوت، اللابيرنث (قصر التيه) الذي بناه سنوسرت الثالث من الأسرة الثانية عشر كان مقر الدوديكارخي، أي حكم الإثنى عشر ، والتي غالباً ما تكون تحريفاً للأمراء العشرين. بعد وفاة والده، پسماتيك تمكن من تحرير مصر من سيطرة الآشوريين، واستعاد رخاء مصر خلال فترة حكمه الطويلة التي امتدت 54 عاماً.[9]

7th century statue found in Kale mentioning Psamtik I. The Ionian Greek inscription reads, "Amphimeos' son Pedon brought me from Egypt and gave as a votive; Psammetichos, the king of Egypt gave him a city for his virtue and a golden diadem for his virtue."[10][11]

After having eliminated all his rivals, Psamtik I reorganized these mercenaries and placed them in key garrisons at Daphnae in the East and Elephantine in the South to prevent a possible Kushite attack and to control trade.[9] This military aid from Lydia lasted until 658 BCE, at which point Gyges faced an impending Cimmerian invasion.[12] By Psamtik I's 4th regnal year, he completed the forging of an alliance with the powerful family of the Masters of Shipping from Heracleopolis, and by his 8th regnal year in 657 BCE, he was in full control of the Delta.[9]

Interpretations of Psamtik I's wars as an alliance between Sais and Lydia against Assyria appear to be inaccurate, despite negative attitudes of the Assyrians towards Gyges's and Psamtik's actions.[9] The Assyrians had risen Sais into preeminence in Egypt after expelling the Saites' Kushite enemies from the country, but Psamtik I and Ashurbanipal had signed a treaty with each other, and no hostilities between them is recorded. Thus Psamtik I and Ashurbanipal had remained allies ever since the former had been put in power with Assyrian military support. The participation of the Arab tribes of the Sinai, who were Assyrian vassals, further attest to the lack of enmity between Sais and Assyria at this period, and the silence of Assyrian sources concerning Psamtik I's expansion imply there was no hostility, whether overt or covert, between Assyria and Sais during Psamtik I's unification of Egypt under his rule.[12][9]

Likewise, Gyges's military support of Psamtik I was not directed against Assyria and is not mentioned as hostile to Assyria or allied with other countries against Assyria in Assyrian records; the Assyrian disapproval of Gyges's support for Psamtik I was primarily motivated by Gyges's refusal to form an alliance with Assyria and his undertaking of these actions independently of Assyria, which the Assyrians interpreted as an act of arrogance, rather than by the support itself.[12][9] Psamtik I's campaigns were not directed against Assyrian power and appear to have been conducted only against the rival kinglets of the Delta, and Ashurbanipal's disapproval of his actions were motivated not by his claim of kingship over Egypt, but by his revocation of the adû agreement between the two kings, as well as by Psamtik I's elimination of the other kinglets allied to Assyria, especially Pakruru of Per-Sopdu and Šarru-lū-dāri, since Ashurbanipal was aware that he had to rely on those kinglets to maintain Assyrian power in Egypt.[9]

In Psamtik I's 9th regnal year, in 656 BCE, he sent an expedition to the city of Thebes which compelled the existing God's Wife of Amun, Shepenupet II, daughter of the former Kushite Pharaoh Piye, to adopt his daughter Nitocris I as her heiress in the so-called Adoption Stela. This was concluded with the approval of the Theban aristocracy and the tacit support of Mentuemhat, who was the Fourth Priest of Amun and the Mayor of Thebes. Psamtik I had unified all of Egypt under his rule.[9]

In 655 and 654 BCE, that is his 10th and 11th regnal years, Psamtik I carried out a war with Libyan tribes who had seized control of the area from the Oxyrhynchite nome around the Bahr Yussef till the Mediterranean Sea, and who had been joined by Psamtik I's previously defeated enemies from his wars in the Delta. Following the successful conclusion of this war, Psamtik I placed an Egyptian garrison at Marea to prevent incursions by Libyans from the desert. Thus, by the end of his first decade of rule in 654 BCE, Psamtik I was firmly in control of all Egypt.[9]

According to Herodotus, Psamtik carried out a twenty-nine year siege of Ashdod.[13] The exact dating of this siege is uncertain.[14]

In the later part of Psamtik I's reign, the Neo-Assyrian Empire started unravelling following the death of Ashurbanipal in 627 BC, leaving a power vacuum in the Levant which allowed the Assyrians' former Scythian vassals to overrun the area. Some time between 623 and 616 BCE, the Scythians reached as far south as Judah and Edom until Psamtik I met them and convinced them to turn back by offering them gifts.[14]

Following the encounter with the Scythians, Psamtik expanded his military operations through the Via Maris into the Levant to support the collapsing Assyrian Empire against the Medes, Babylonians, Scythians and Chaldeans who had revolted against it. Psamtik I's intervention implied that an alliance had already been concluded between him and the Neo-Assyrian Empire, although it is unknown whether it was a new alliance between him and the new Assyrian king Sin-shar-ishkun or a renewal of the old alliance signed when Psamtik I had been enthroned by the Assyrian army as king of Sais in 664 BCE.[14]

Psamtik died in 610 BCE and was succeeded by his son, Necho II.

وحد پسماتيك مصر في العام الثامن من حكمه عندما أرسل أسطولاً قوياً في مارس 656 ق.م. إلى طيبة وأجبر زوجة الإله أمون على اتخاذ ابنته نيتوكريس كوريثة لها، كما دون في مسلة التبني. نجاح پسماتيك في السيطرة على طيبة حطم آخر مظاهر سيطرة الأسرة النوبية على مصر العليا بقيادة تنتاماني. نيتوكريس ستبقى في منصبها لمدة 70 عاماً من 656 ق.م. حتى وفاتها في 585 ق.م. بعد ذلك قام پسماتيك الأول بالعديد من الحملات ضد هؤلاء الحكام الإقليميين الذين عارضوا توحيده لمصر. أحد انتصاراته على عصابات ليبية ذكرت في مسلة من العام 10-11 من عهده في واحة الداخلة. وقد كان پسماتيك الأول فرعونا عظيماً لمصر حيث حررها من الآشوريين، ثم أسس علاثات وطيدة مع الإغريق وشجع العديد منهم على الإستقرار في مصر، وانشاء مستوطنات لهم والإنخراط في الجيش المصري.

واستعادت الدولة في ذلك الوقت قوتها العسكرية والدبلوماسية، وساعد قيام حركة التعبئة وأرسلت بعض الحملات المصرية إلى النوبة السفلى، بل إن "بسماتك" استطاع أن يرسل قواته إلى منطقة نهر الفرات في محاولة لمد يد العون، وإنقاذ المملكة الآشورية المتهاوية.

ويلاحظ أن حكم الملك بسماتيك الأول قد طال أمده بشكل واضح، بعكس حفيده بسماتيك الثاني الذي حكم بعد ذلك فترة قصيرة من 595 – 589 ق.م ، إن نوعية الفنون التشكيلية من رسم ونحت وهندسة معمارية، والأعداد الفائقة للمنشآت التي تركها الملك بسماتيك الأول ووزراؤه لتوضح فعلا طول فترة حكمه. وكانت أهم الأحداث التي ميزت عصره هي حربه مع المملكة الأثيوبية في نباتا. حيث قام الجنود المصريون، ومعهم الجنود المساعدون الأجانب باجتياز الشلال الثالث، ولا شك أنهم توغلوا حتى نباتا. وبذلك تم تصفية الحساب النهائي للنزاع القديم الذي قام بين كل من الصاويين والكوشيين. ومحيت أسماء ملوك الأسرة الخامسة والعشرين من الآثار، وبذلك أزيل بأثر رجعي كل أثر لمطامع وطموحات السودانيين في مصر.[15]

وظل المصريون يطلقون اسم بسماتيك العظيم على أولادهم حتى العصر اليوناني. وأحد هؤلاء الذين تسموا بهذا الاسم هو ابن الملك"أمازيس"، الذي كان لسوء حظه قد اعتلى العرش في الوقت الذي هجم فيه الفرس على مصر. ولم يستمر حكمه إلا ستة أشهر فقط (526 – 525 ق.م) ، ثم خلعه الملك العظيم قمبيز عن العرش وأجبره على الإنتحار.

التحقيق في أصل اللغات

 
Legend of the linguistic experiment by Psamtik I.

ويروي هيرودوت قصة عن پسماتيك في الباب الثاني من كتابه، "التواريخ". أثناء سفره إلى مصر، سمع هيرودوت أن پْسِمّاتيخوس (پسماتيك) أراد أن يعرف أصل اللغات بإجراء تجربة بطفلين رضيعين. أعطى پسماتيك الطفلين لراعي وأمره برعايتهما على ألا يتحدث إليهم على الإطلاق، على أن يعود ذلك الراعي إلى الملك لدى سماعه أول الكلمات التي ينطقها الطفلان، ليرى بأي لغة تكون. الافتراض كان أن أول الكلمات المنطوقة ستكون باللغة الجذرية التي هي أم كل اللغات الأخرى. وعندما صاح أحد الطفلين "بـِكوس" وهو ماد لذراعية استنتج الراعي أن الكلمة من اللغة الفريجية لأن الكلمة كانت تعني "خبز" بالفريجية. وبذلك استنتجوا أن الفريجيين هم أقدم من المصريين. صحة قصة هيرودوت، مثل الكثير من قصصه، مشكوك بها.[16]

زوجاته

Psamtik's chief wife was Mehytenweskhet, the daughter of Harsiese, the vizier of the North and High Priest of Re at Heliopolis. Psamtik and Mehytenweskhet were the parents of Necho II, Merneith, and the Divine Adoratrice Nitocris I.[17]

Psamtik's father-in-law—the aforementioned Harsiese—was married twice: to Sheta, with whom he had a daughter named Naneferheres, and to an unknown woman, by whom he had both Djedkare, who succeeded him as vizier of the North, and Mehytenweskhet.[18]

Reconstruction, with indication of size.[20]

On 9 March 2017, Egyptian and German archaeologists discovered a colossal statue about 7.9 metres (26 ft) in height at the Heliopolis site in Cairo. Made of quartzite, the statue was found in a fragmentary state, with the bust, the lower part of the head and the crown submerged in groundwater.[21]

It has been confirmed to be of Psamtik I due to engravings found that mentioned one of the pharaoh's names on the base of the statue.[22][23][24][25][26]

A spokesperson at the time commented that "If it does belong to this king, then it is the largest statue of the Late Period that was ever discovered in Egypt."[27][28] The head and torso are expected to be moved to the Grand Egyptian Museum.[21]

The statue (colossus) was sculpted in the ancient classical style of 2000 BC, establishing a resurgence to the greatness and prosperity of the classical period of old, and reconstructions bear a strong similarity with a statue of a striding Senusret I (1971-1926 BC), now in the Cairo Museum.[29][30] However, from the many gathered fragments (now 6,400 of them) of quartzite collected, it has also been established that the colossus was at some time deliberately destroyed. Certain discolored & cracked rock fragments show evidence of having been heated to high temperatures then shattered (with cold water), a typical way of destroying ancient colossi.[31]
