Document Summary

Intelligence begins to matter when states begin to worry about communications being intercepted. Battle of kadash in 1284 bc involves intel and deception. Egyptians capture scouts from hittite army plausible that these scouts provided deception info. Able to save themselves because as they walk into the ambush the egyptian forces capture another set of scouts who warn them of ambush. All sorts of things in past events that utilized intelligence but we have no record of it, can only extrapolate details. Personally interviews egyptian priests to get their view of their past from heiroglyphics. Some problems with his account, but first historian. Problem with herodotus involves his use of supernatural causation. But his account of greco-persian war is secular. Ionian rebellion ionia is under persian control, there"s a rebellion. Herodotus says there"s one major battle fought in 494 between an ionian greek coalition and persian sea power forces around lades.
