Everything about The Libu totally explained
The
Libu (
R'bw,
Ribou or
Labu) were a tribe of
ancient Libyans first attested in
ancient Egyptian texts from the
New Kingdom, especially from the
Ramesside Period. In the Great Karnak Inscription
Merneptah describes how hostilities between
Egypt and
Libya broke out and how the Libyans were defeated .
Ramses III defeated the Libyans in the 5th year of his reign, but six years later the Libyans joined the
Meshwesh and invaded the western Delta and were defeated again .
The name of this tribe was adopted by the Greeks for "
Libya" and its inhabitants, as well as for
North Africa in general. The historian
Herodotus, like other writers, would apply this name to the whole continent of Africa.
