	Sumerian king list - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The kingship was believed to be handed down by the gods, and could be passed from one city to another by military conquest.
		The first name on the list whose existence has been authenticated through recent archaeological discoveries, is that of Enmebaragesi of Kish, whose name is also mentioned in the Gilgamesh epics.
		However, aside from the unrealistic durations of some reigns, the figures cannot be simply added, because dynasties presented as having reigned in succession -- with the kingship passing from city to city -- more likely reigned simultaneously, with each dynasty ruling its own city.

	The Ancient Egypt Site: 1st Dynasty
		Although from the reign of the Horus Den on, they often took the kings' Nebti-names as their Prenomen, the relationship between the names in the Kinglists and those mentioned on the archaeological sources is not always clear.
		This is the case for all kings preceding the Horus Den, the first four kings of the 1st Dynasty.
		The next clue to the identification of Menes and a confirmation of the chronology of the 1st Dynasty is provided by two seals found in 1985 and 1995 at the royal cemetery at Umm el-Qa'ab.

	Egypt: History - Pharaonic Dynasty I
		The problems raised by the first four kings of the 1st Dynasty, with Menes at their head, are less easily solved and demand a wider perspective than has sufficed for the last four.
		Confirmation of the later event is implied by a palette of the 19th Dynasty mentioning the Ptah of Menes.
		Such was the inevitable first impression given by an immense 'palace-facade mastaba' at north Saqqara with which the series of discoveries opened.

		Manetho's enumeration of dynasties never again refers to Thebes, and it appears that nearly all the dates found in the inscriptions there are in terms of the Tanite reigns.
		The first step consisted in placing before him two tablets, the one affirming and the other denying that there was a case calling for investigation.
		For the first four we may probably accept Manetho's order of Smendes, Psusennes, Nephercheres, and Amenophthis, but the Osochor whom he gives as his fifth name must be suspected of being borrowed from Dyn.

		The Dynasty ends with the reign of Queen Sebeknefrure (or Sokebneferure), one of three women who are known to have occupied the throne of Ancient Egypt (not counting Greek Queens like Cleopatra), though nothing otherwise is known about Sebeknefrure or her reign.

		Dynasty is one of only a handful of foreign companies which have been awarded a business license to operate an exploration program or mining operation in China.
		Since then the stock has been in a downtrend on a mission to fill that gap (one of the most basic tenets of technical analysis is that most gaps usually get filled and usually sooner rather than later).
		The positive action in Dynasty stock and the coincident bullish pattern in the gold sector seems to indicate an excellent entry point is here to join the coming golden Dynasty.

	INFO-MINE: FIRST DYNASTY MINES LTD. - March 7/97 - Press Release
		While management's stated intention was that gold and copper properties in Asia were First Dynasty's long-term focus, the company acquired EPS to complement its asset base with a property that had the potential for nearer term cash flow than the mineral exploration properties then being evaluated.
		First Dynasty's plan for Sembakung at the time of the acquisition was to increase production at the oilfield from the then current production rate of 2,800 barrels of oil per day (BOPD) to 14,000 BOPD by recapitalizing the field and then entering into a secondary recovery program using water-flood technology.
		First Dynasty's efforts to effectively operate the project with local management have been more difficult than anticipated and this has resulted in a delay of at least a year in implementing the expansion program and in realizing near-term cashflow objectives.
