		The Pharaoh whom Joseph served was said to be named Magron in the Haggada, the Egyptian form of this name appears in the throne names of both Tuthmosis IV and Amenhotep III.

		The Pharaoh mentioned in 2 Kings 18:21 and Isaiah 36:6 is by many thought to be Taharqa; but if the expedition of Sennacherib occurred in 701 B.C., as is generally held, there is little doubt that Shabaka, or possibly Shabataka, is the Pharaoh referred to.

		The beginning and ending of the list are now lost, which means that we are missing both the introduction of the list -if ever there was such an introduction- and the enumeration of the kings following the 17th Dynasty.
		The fact that the list was scribbled on the back of an older papyrus has been seen by some as an indication that it was of no great importance to the writer.
		Such lists had a more cultic and political reason for being, for indeed they confirmed that the current king was the rightful heir of the kings that had ruled Egypt for many centuries.

	Hatshepsut - Free Encyclopedia of Thelema
		Pharaoh was an exclusively male title; at this point in Egyptian history there was no word for a female ruler (the closest equivalent, which was used by Sobeknefru, was King's Wife), thus Queen Hatshepsut became King Hatshepsut.
		As Pharaoh, Hatshepsut initiated building projects that were grander and more numerous than any of her New Kingdom predecessors.
		Replacing the names on older monuments with one's own was a common practice of Egyptian Pharaohs, but in some cases it was an act of damnatio memoriae -- condemning a person by erasing him or her from recorded existence.

	[No title]

		Also worth noting is that the Kings List, or Pharaohs List is somewhat selective, omitting for example Akhenaten (the heretic king), Hatshepsut (a female pharaoh), and the reigns of the kings during the Hyskos occupation.
		The long list of the kings of the principal dynasties carved on a wall is known as the "Table of Abydos" (showing the cartouche name of every dynastic pharaoh of Egypt from the first, Narmer/Menes, until the pharaohs of the last dynasty).
		A list of kings, similar to that of Seti I, formerly stood here, but the fragments were removed by the French consul and sold to the British Museum.

	Women in Egypt: Menkaure and His Queen: 3. The Queen's Husband
		The children of the pharaoh and his wives, and the children of heiress-queen and her consort-king, would all refer to the pharaoh as "father" and the heiress-queen as "mother." Evidence of this is the way that the pharaoh is always the "son" of his predecessor, even though there may be no physical link.
		The roles of the male pharaoh and the female queen were interpreted as one element in a system of complementary dualities.
		Occasionally, however, she would "marry" and establish as the new pharaoh a man from outside the royal family, which brought about the founding of a new dynasty and introduced new blood into the royal bloodline.

		This Chronicle of the Pharaohs is a good introductory book for those who would like to have a map of the different Aegyptian dinasties and their pharaohs.
		The book sets up a good list of pharaohs and dinasties, but it lacks references to some of the most recent theories about the actual order of the pharaohs and some potential 'missing' ones.

		During his reign, he had the names of Akhenaten, Tutankhamun and Ay removed from the royal list of pharaohs, which suggests that he had personal reasons for eradicating those rulers from the records.

		Uncovered in the tomb of Pharaoh Seti I, and now preserved in the British Museum, it appears to be an accurate record of human rulers back to the first man, Adam.
		The list of Pharaohs is shorter than on other tablets, evidently because it omits the names of gods and demigods about the period of the Deluge.

		There is evidence, though, of Hatshepsut dressing as a man: "Although [statues of her] show her in all the trappings of a Pharaoh, such as she assumed on the death of her husband Thutmose II, full justice is done to her feminine figure and appearance...
		She was actually the first of the female Pharaohs to dress as a man (Gardiner 183).
		Whether or not Hatshepsut had the right to hold the kingship, she "needed to stress her legitimacy as King, not queen, of Egypt" (Quirke 14), to "[provide] fuel for [her] emerging divine persona through the oracular stories publicized on temple walls and no doubt informally spread through oral means" (Bryan 351).
