Factual error: During Moses' comeback from his Ethiopia campaign, as soon as he presents himself to Pharaoh Seti, he says, "I bring you - Ethiopia!" This is an anachronism, as Ethiopia was known as ABYSSINIA in ancient times much like Siam was to Thailand and Ceylon was to Sri Lanka.

Suggested correction: This is an example of translation convention. In real life, Moses would been speaking Egyptian or Hebrew. This is being "translated" into English for the audience in a way that they can understand. This is similar to when some Bible translations translate something like "the third day of the week" to "Tuesday." It's not incorrect, it's just translation.
