Not sure, lmk what you find. Its one of the more detailed campaigns since Thutmose had his scribe keeping daily accounts to even some of the soldier's journals compaining about the "hell-hole" lands they had to march thru & missing home. Then later many records were proclaimed on the wall of the Temple at Karmak depicting all that we would expect of the victorious Kings exploits. They have found Egyptian artifacts in Megiddo so no doubt these events occurred , then the Egyptians maintained a large outpost in Gaza which was the very rich & strategic coastal city/region that placed them right in the middle of all those happenings in Judah.

Egyptology really is still a new field (150yrs) we're still working on many translations , there's always some new window opening up, they were just avid record keepers going back 4500yrs.
