This paper is a discussion of the essential, indeed the key, element of New Kingdom pictorial representations of warfare in Asia surrounding the depiction of the enemy citadel-fortress. We appear to find this depiction from the early stages of the 18th Dynasty onwards, but its inclusion as well as absence needs further specification, and that is the aim of this study. Based on earlier analyses of images of warfare, the following contribution carries the vector of imagery and historical development. The contrast of these urban scenes with Libyan and Nubian combat depictions, frequently touched upon in scholarship, will be partially limned in this paper
