And I haven't even gotten started on the problematic timeframe of all this. There is a sizable number of years between the time of Ramesses II (1302BC) and Moses (1527 BCE). And lemme tell you right now, the evidence that Ramesses II was the Pharaoh at the time of Moses/enslavement is SEVERELY problematic not least because of the timeframes. There is no mention in the extensive historical records of the time of a plague during Ramesses II reign, nor that Israel, etc were independent states at that time. Far more likely Moses existed during the earlier Hyksos intermediate period reign (although that theory is problematic as well, as they did not undertake such extensive building projects as Ramesses II), in which case, you could not possibly link to Ramesses II.
