The Walls-of-the-Ruler are mentioned in the ''Tale of Sinuhe'' Lichtheim, p.224 and in the so-called ''Prophecy of Neferti'' Dodson, ''op.cit.'', p.57. No remains have been found to date, Shaw, ''op.cit.'', p.159 but some think that the city of Sile (Tjaru) was part of it. New Kingdom depictions show forts which had a secured supply of water and were surrounded by crocodile infested ditches or canals which were spanned by bridges.Morkot, ''op.cit.'', p.42 REFERENCES
