The ancient Hittite-Egyptian peace treaty is one of the earliest surviving peace accords on record. After two hundred years of fighting each other, and both facing outside threats, in 1259 B.C. Ramses II and the Hittite King Hattusili III negotiated a famous peace treaty. This agreement ended the conflict and decreed that the two kingdoms would aid each other in the event of an invasion by a third party. There is a copy of the agreement by the United Nations Security Council Chamber. -- source link
