	Herihor, A Ruler but not a King (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Herihor marked the establishment of his new regime by initiating a new dating era, known as the Renaissances, or "Repeating of Births", a term that had previously been used by kings who founded new dynasties.
		Herihor apparently sent his envoy not to Ramesses XI, who probably lived in Pi-Ramessse, but rather to Smendes at Tanis, not very far from Pi-Ramessse in the Delta for assistance along his journey.
		Among these mummies was found Herihor's wife, though their joint funerary papyrus, a magnificent illustrated copy of the Book of the Dead, had come on to the antiquities market some years before the formal discovery.

	Herihor - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Herihor was an Egyptian army officer and high priest of Amun at Thebes (1080 BC to 1074 BC) during the reign of Pharaoh Ramesses XI.
		Herihor advanced through the ranks of the military during the reign of Ramesses XI and was integral to restoring order by ousting Pinhasy, viceroy of Nubia, from Thebes.
		This apparent division resulted in two rulers of Egypt – one at Thebes, the other at Tanis – but in practice these were two branches of the same family with much intermarriage and the division between these two '21st dynasties' is somewhat artificial: Herihor's great-grandson was crowned Psusennes I at Tanis.

	Herihor's Tomb--Egypt's Missing Treasure Trove?
		It is distinctly possible that one of the kings in charge of clearing the tombs for reburial took over the remaining funerary equipment for himself.
		Herihor was in charge of reburial operations in the Valley of the Kings at one point, and had ample opportunity to pick and choose from whatever was still available.
		If you visit Herihor's wife at the Cairo Museum, you can still detect the shadow of a faint smile on the withered lips of her mummy, perhaps because she knows the secret hiding place of the greatest treasure trove the world has ever known.

	THE FIRST, SECOND & THIRD INTERMEDIATE PERIODS
		Herihor, the High Priest, enforced his supremacy over the last of the Ramessides and created a ruling class of High Priests of Amun at Thebes.
		Herihor in fact ruled alongside Ramesses XI, Herihor ruling from the south of the country, and Ramesses ruling from Pi-Ramesse, the capital established by Ramesses the Great.
		Herihor died about five years before Ramesses XI, and was replaced by Piankh, who may have been his son-in-law, although both Piankh and Ramesses XI seem to have died at about the same time.

		It is most significant that Herihor arrives on the scene at the end of such an extended period of social chaos, in perfect agreement with the dating of Herihor in the revised history.
		In Thebes itself, Herihor's accession to power was seemingly endorsed by oracles of the Theban deities, who promised him 20 years of power as their protagonist.
		Herihor moved his base of operations to the south, where he took on the added title of viceroy, and where by degrees he assumed the status of a king.

	Comparing Mummy Dockets and Their Chronological Value
		Herihor also was `Viceroy of Nubia' which he therefore according to Kitchen could not hold until after Panhesy.
		There appears therefore no conflict that the Ramses/Inaros connection to Herihor could not be true in revised view since Herihor was active from about 418-405 BC albeit `joint work' might be work done in succession of each others time unless Inaros lived long and accomplished it late in life.
		Herihor was in office during the reign of Darius II (424-404 BC).

	The `Repetition-of-Births' in Oriental History
		Now it could hardly be doubted that the Renaissance in question referred to some momentous occurrence or decision in Herihor's career, so that this must have fallen at a time when the suzerainty of the last Ramesses had run only two thirds of its course.
		Now Pay-onkh was Herihor's eldest son, and since it is inconceivable that Herihor should have relinquished the high priesthood during his lifetime we cannot but conclude that he died before the 7th year of the Renaissance and at any rate more than a year before his suzerain.
		We may not be far off in deducing that Arsames himself and perhaps an Egyptian of the stature of Herihor, was invited to such a `Repetion of Births' events at Susa.

		For much of the 20th century it was considered that Piankh, a king's son of Cush and commander of southern army under Herihor, was a son of that same Herihor.
		The notion that Herihor died in either the 6th or 7th year of the whm mswt, and was succeeded by Piankh, is predicated entirely on the fact that at least by year seven of the Renaissance Piankh bore the title High Priest of Amun.
		Scholars assume that Herihor has died and that Ramses XI is the sole Egyptian pharaoh.

		He ruled for about 26 years, until the role of pharaoh was seriously challenged by the high priests of Thebes.
		THere is much evidence to suggest that the two leaders -- Herihor and Smendes -- split up rule of the country by agreement.

	Preternatural by Margaret Wander Bonanno - Page 2 of 7
		No matter for, in this brightest of bright lands, where the eye of Amun-Re struck stark shadows even as he struck men blind who dared contemplate his visage, this room (womb/tomb), lit only by a single lamp, was uncommonly dark.
		The high priest Herihor, who had been among this prince's most loyal retainers until the Great Aberration, had returned to claim him afterward, for reasons he himself did not entirely understand.
		For despite his concern for the disposition of his own soul, Herihor had taken it upon himself to perform his last duty toward this fallen king, to see that his body was preserved so that his royal soul, even in its pauper's guise, could perhaps sneak through a side door into heaven.

		That it was Herihor who had the great gaunt misshapen body brought to this womb-like room by tongueless slaves who could not report it after was among the finest of ironies.
		His answer lay in the tasks his hands performed -- the loving washing of the long, edemic limbs, the careful removal of the viscera to be sealed in the canopic jars.
		Herihor wondered as expertly he severed the slippery intestines from the contiguous organs, placing them in the jar which bore the head of Qebekh-sennuef the Falcon.

		Herihor erected the temple of Khonsu on the precints of Amun at Karnak, and even had his name written in the royal cartouche, which shows the degree of his political influence.

		Thus for Ramesses XI, we now have the full repertoire of scenes from his hypostyle hall which can now be compared with the content of other such halls (e.g., barque-scenes, litany of Victorious Thebes, occurring in the Great Hypostyle Hall of Amun's temple).
		In this, the high priest has some of his enquiries refused by the god, but he has 20 years granted him by Amun, plus the carving of a stela - perhaps this very one.
