The Bible says that the Pharoah of Egypt led his entire army in chasing the Hebrews (Jews) led by Moses. It says that the Lord God parted the Red Sea, the Jews walked across. The Egyptian army followed on chariots, and all--including the Pharoah perished when God closed up the Red Sea to smite the Egyptians.
Diving explorations of the Red Sea have found chariot wheels from this period, and petrified bones - probably of Egyptian soldiers.
