	Shoshenq III - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Shoshenq III had at least 4 sons–Bakennefi A, Pashedbast B, Pimay (the 'Great Chief of the Ma, son of the Lord of the Two Lands, Shoshenq'), and Takeloth C–but they all appear to have predeceased their father through his nearly 4 decades-long-rule.
		Shoshenq's third son, Pimay ('The Lion'), was once thought to be identical with king Pami('The Cat'), but it is now believed that they are two different individuals, due to the separate orthography and meaning of their names.
		Shoshenq III was buried in the looted Royal Tomb NRT V at Tanis.

	Encyclopedia: Takelot II
		While Kenneth Kitchen has taken this to mean that Shoshenq III succeeded Takelot II, in fact Takelot II and Shoshenq III were likely close contemporaries because, immediately after the death of his father in Year 25 of Takelot II, Osorkon B begins dating his activities from Year 22 of Sheshonq III onwards.
		The Crown Prince Osorkon B was not outmaneuvered to the throne of Tanis by Shoshenq III as is generally thought because both individuals ruled over separate kingdoms with the 22nd Dynasty controlling Lower Egypt, and Takelot II/Osorkon B ruling Middle and Upper Egypt from Herakleopolis to Thebes, where they are attested.
		Osorkon III Si-Ese Meryamun was the famous High Priest of Amun and Crown Prince Osorkon B, son of Takelot II.

	Pedubast I - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pedubast is recorded as being of Libyan ancestry and ruled Egypt for 25 years according to Manetho.
		He first became king at Thebes in Year 8 of Shoshenq III and his highest dated year is his 23rd year according to Nile Quay Text No.29.
		This Year is equivalent to Year 31 of Shoshenq III.

	Aegyptica Antica
		c.945-924 BC Shoshenq reigned for 21 year, and despite being a Libyan invader, returned Egypt to a measure of its former glory.
		These were highly successful, and it is generally accepted that Shoshenq was the Pharaoh Shishak of the bible and as such captured the treasures of King Solomon from Jerusalem.
		Shoshenq himself wasn't the heir to the throne, but instead over threw the Crown Prince Osorkon and usurped his position.

		The graffito found on a papyrus-bundle column from the complex south of the pyramid enclosure of the pyramid of Sesostris III at Dahshur seems to preserve the first evidence for a double-dated monument of Amenhotep III and IV as coregents.
		4 is devoted to the deeds of Ramses III in favour of temple domains, the inventory of these, the function and the occasion of the ancient publication of the papyrus and, furthermore, to the historical circumstances under which the papyrus was compiled, and the reasons for this.
		The composing of the text was probably motivated by the situation connected with the death of Ramses III and the accession of Ramses IV.

	Errors In Kitchen
		This means that after Shoshenq V. The Theban based 23rd dynasty must have seized their chance to take over the Tanite realm.
		So when we see Rudamun as Chief of the Libu in year 30 of Shoshenq V we may indeed be looking at the future king in an important post in Sais during the reign of his father or brother in the years before his unexpected rule.
		It may have been aprocess that began earlier as it is known that Osorkon III's son (not yet king) Takelot became "High Priest of Arsaphes, governor of the South, General and Army Leader, and Chief of Pi-Sekhemkheperre".

	Apis&TIP
		Before moving on to Apises previous to Taharqa's (and perhaps Shoshenq V's last year), a further Apis burial needs to be discussed, although a final verdict may not be possible before the end of section 5 of this post.
		But, if Shoshenq V was accepted in Memphis in year 14 of the Nubian, then we may presume that his successor 10 years later, if he had any, may be the one referred too in those year 4 inscriptions.
		III) The Shabaka stela should be redated to either year 4 or 11 if it becomes proven that he was the first, as is usually thought.

	Egypt: The Books of the Sky (Heavens)
		Generally speaking, the books emphasize cosmography and the topography of the sky, a topic which had its beginnings in the Book of the Heavenly Cow, though the astronomical ceilings found in the tombs of Seti I (KV17) through Ramesses III (KV11) can also be viewed as precursors to the Books of the Sky (heavens).
		The Book of the Day, though found in the royal necropolis at Tanis, along with excerpts from the tomb of Osorkon II and a nearly complete version in the tomb of Shoshenq III, is also depicted within the tomb of Ramesses VI.
		In all of these instances, the book is depicted on the ceiling of the New Kingdom tombs, though at Tanis, they shifted to the walls.

		(A canopic chest of Shoshenq I is known, but it was not found in the tomb and the jars do not fit in it in any event.) There is also a heart scarab that Montet mistakenly claimed is that of Shoshenq I. Unfortunately for Montet the scarab was stolen before he could properly study it.
		The same scarab is now in Brooklyn and has been confirmed to be that of Shoshenq III (no surprise there!).
		Also it is a feature of the 3IP and later that kings and high officials were generally buried in "dynastic" or multigenerational tombs, typically within the temenos of the chief temple of the capital (cf.

		This temple served as a great source of findings both inside, and most importantly, outside of the temple.
		In 1939 Pierre Montet found a group of royal tombs (six total) of the 21st and 22nd dynasties near the southwest corner of the great temple belonging to: Psusennes I; Amenemope; Osorkon III; and Shoshenq III.
		The temple of Amun is by far what Tanis is most known for.

		The temples can be dated to the reign of Nectanebo and, most excitingly, to Shoshenq III, a rather elusive pharaoh.
		The Thutmose III group, under the direction of J. Lipinska, recently announced plans to convert one of its storage-magazines into a space for displaying (to tourists) many of the beautifully painted relief- fragments recovered since excavations at the temple-site began in the early-1960s [see article this issue].
		The handsome large scale-model of all three Deir el Bahari temples as they probably looked at the height of their glory will also be on view in this new mini-gallery.

		The earliest Sed Festival for which we have evidence is that of Pepi I in the South Saqqara Stone Annal document and the most lavish, judging by surviving inscriptions, were those of Ramesses II and Amenhotep III.
		Sed Festivals were also celebrated by the later Libyan era kings such as Shoshenq III, Shoshenq V, Osorkon I who had his Second Heb Sed in his Year 33 and Osorkon II.
		Osorkon II himself constructed a Massive Temple at Bubastis complete with a red Granite Gateway decorated with scenes of this Jubilee to celebrate his own Heb Sed.

		Tell el-Balamun is in an inhospitable area of marshy ground and it is for this reason that the mound has remained intact, naturally protected from robbers, early treasure seeking archaeologists and modern development.
		In the earliest excavation seasons the team from the British Museum uncovered the sand-filled foundations of temples, finding several royal names in foundation deposits, with the oldest dating to Shoshenq III Usermaatre Setepenre of Dynasty XXII and dedicated to a Temple of Amun.
		The temple had been dismantled in antiquity and much of the stone re-used elsewhere or burnt for lime at the site.
