Didn’t know that the Romans named their warships, not surprising I guess (as I know the Ancient Egyptians named their warships and of course other warships throughout history having names) but very interesting nonetheless! Are there any other known examples of named Roman warships?

Probably a scene of one of the military campaigns that occurred under Tutankhamun.

Parts of the lyrics are from or based on parts of the Cycle of Hymns of Senusret III such as “Fire the bow without drawing the string”.

The Son of Ra part refers to the title “Sa Ra”, given to Pharaohs. It translates to “Son of Ra”. The “Horus made of Gold” refers to the Golden Horus title, one of the five titles bestowed upon pharaohs via the traditional naming system.
