Sebek-khu Stele
The Sebek-khu Stele, also known as the Stele of Khu-sobek, is an inscription in honour of a man named Sebek-khu who lived during the reign of Senusret III discovered by John Garstang in 1901 outside Khu-sobek's tomb at Abydos, Egypt, and now housed in the Manchester Museum.
The text is largely about Khu-sobek's life, and is historically important because it records the earliest known Egyptian military campaign in Canaan. The text reads "His Majesty proceeded northward to overthrow the Asiatics. His Majesty reached a foreign country of which the name was Sekmem Then Sekmem fell, together with the wretched Retenu", where Sekmem is thought to be Shechem.
