The Amarna Letters - Conversations between Kings and Canaanites | Supplemental Podcast #2

I thought that this might be a fun topic for those of you who are into examining ancient primary sources. For those of you who may not know, the Amarna Letters are a collection of 14th century BCE correspondence between three pharaohs of Egypt and other great kings or their vassals and mayors in the Levant. They're interesting and actually fun to read for what they reveal about international relations in the Near East during the period.
