	Sheshonq I, Founder of Egypt's 22nd Dynasty
		Sheshonq I was not the first Libyan to at least rule a part of Egypt, and in fact, many other Libyan names appear in official capacities before him.
		Sheshonq was actually the son-in-law of his predecessor, Psusennes II (though some references provide that it was his son, Osorkon I, who married Psusennes II's daughter named Maatkara), and a nephew of Osorkon the elder.
		Sheshonq I was known as a strong ruler who once again brought together a divided Egypt, which had been fragmented between Thebes in the South and Tanis in the north.
