He Had It All Under Check

Nastase showed that he had everything in control when Egyptian king Khabbash attacked. This ambush did not end well for the outsider as the Nubian forces repulsed his group. It dealt a huge blow to his naval forces and treasury. Even though Nastasen had been a rather obscure figure, there is a reason that modern historians have learned quite a lot about the conflict in question.

The truth is that Nastasen commissioned a 5-foot-high granite monument known as a stela after he defeated Khabbash. It was probably placed at the temple of Amon at Gebel Barkal. It was later found in Dongola, a city by the River Nile in the northern part of Sudan. The stone is also marked with the most recent Egyptian hieroglyphs to have been discovered. The message commemorates the triumph of the black pharaoh.
