Muwatalli II
Al-Qusayr is the closest modern-day city to the ancient walled hilltop city of Qadesh (now the ruins known as "Tell Nebi Mend", (ca. 1766 ft)) named for the idol worshipped by the ancients at the time and which sits north and above the plain east of the river where historians place the largest known chariot vs. chariot battle in antiquity, the Battle of Qadash, May 1274 BC between the forces of Ramesses II's Egypt and the Anatolian Empire of the Hittites of Muwatalli II.
