		Piye moved north to counter his invasion and took the lands that were controlled by Tefnakhte and also by Nimlot I -- who was at one point an ally.
		Piye continued his move northward to take the city of Herakleopolis which had been ruled by another ally, Pefjauawybast and threatened by Tefnakhte.

	The 25th dynasty
		Piye's famous second stela, now in Cairo and dated to his year 21, describes in magniloquent prose his campaign northward to put an end to the "rebellion" and describes how he achieved an even more remarkable success.
		One of the walls in B 500 depicts Piye's Heb-Sed, the ancient Egyptian 30-year festival by which the pharaoh was thought to renew his powers.
		It is Shabaqo rather than Piye whom the classical historians remembered as the founder of the 25th Dynasty, doubtless because he was the first of his line to take up permanent residence in Egypt.

	Egypt: Piye and the 25th Dynasty
		Piye ascended the Nubian (Kushite) thrown (or at least its northern half) as the successor of Kashta, which explains why at least one reference refers to Kashta as the founder of the 25th Dynasty.
		This perhaps explains Piye's seemingly strong emotional ties with Egypt, what he considered to be part of his motherland, even though he was not from Egypt proper.
		While the city was heavily fortified and defended, as well as the water of the Nile protecting its walls, Piye was able to use the masts of boats and ships in the Memphite harbor to assault the city and scale the walls.

	Ancient Scripts: Zapotec
		A detail explanation of the sacred calendar can be found at Mesoamerican Writing Systems, but in brief it can visualized as two interlocked cycles of 20 "day signs" and 13 numbers or "coefficients".
		A year in the Calendar Round is identified by the date in the sacred calendar that corresponds to the first day in the solar year.
		Because the coefficients of the piye can only go up to 13, any glyph compound with a numeral higher than 13 can potentially be a day in a solar month, a solar month, or a trecena.
