	The Ancient Egypt Site - Turin Kinglist
		Often the current king, or one of his contemporaries, is seen in adoration before the cartouches or representations of the king’s "ancestors".
		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.
		For the kings of the first three dynasties, a name is written in a cartouche as well, despite the fact that cartouche-names were not used prior to the rule of the last king of the 3rd Dynasty, Huni.

		There are several other lists in existence that enumerate the predecessors of a king, such as the lists in the temples of Seti I and Ramses II at Abydos.
		Although these lists are very valuable for the study of ancient Egyptian chronology, they are nothing more than an enumeration of some of the "ancestors" of the current king, represented as the good heir who pays respect to his long line of ancestors.
		For the kings of the first three dynasties a name is also written in a cartouche, despite the fact that cartouche-names were not used prior to the rule of the last king of the Third Dynasty, Huni.

		The Turin Canon shows a Sixth Dynasty consisting of twelve Memphite kings, and, although the lengths of reign are badly damaged, a summation line indicates that the total duration was either 181 (8) or 187 (9) years.
		The king was thought of as a human aspect of the god Horus, and a challenge to the legitimate king was the equivalent of a challenge to the god Horus.
		He listed the first six kings in the Sixth Dynasty and indicated that there were 21 kings in the “last Memphite Dynasty.” This ambiguous description of a “last Memphite dynasty” led to a series of errors by Manetho’s redactors.

	king list
		A group of 10 kings are recorded in the Abydos kinglist but are omitted in the Turin Canon of Kings (a Netjerkare [Abydos] = Neitiqerti [Turin]).
		It consisted of 19 kings and queens-regnant, all of pure Macedonian origin; characterized by frequent intermarriage between the king and his sister, often with the queen or queen-mother as coregent ruling with the king.
		Overweaning ambition and greed in the royal family was the cause of frequent palace coups and assasinations, with kings and despots frequently losing and regaining the throne (all of which tends to confuse the chronology).

	Hyksos at AllExperts
		The tradition took the form of a tale in which the Hyksos king Apopi sent a messenger to Seqenenra in Thebes to demand that the Theban hippopotamus pool be done away with, for the noise of these beasts was such that he was unable to sleep in far-away Avaris.
		With the chaos at the end of the 19th Dynasty, the first kings of the 20th Dynasty in the Elephantine Stele and the papyrus Harris re-invigorated an anti-Hyksos stance to strengthen their nativistic reaction towards the Asiatic settlers of the north, who may again have been expelled from the country.
		The story of the Hyksos was known to the Greeks, whom attempted to identify it within their own mythology with the expulsion of Belus (Baal?) and the daughters of Danaos, associated with the origin of the Argive dynasty.

		The Aegyptiaca corresponds rather closely the King Lists, which were (as the name suggests) lists of the kings of ancient Egypt.
		However, some kings were selective, choosing to omit names of rulers they did not think were fit, such as King Seti I’s king list in his temple in Abydos (South of Cairo) omits the heretic king Akhenaten.
		The earlier kings of the fifth dynasty built sun temples at Abu Sir, where the cult of the sun god Ra’ was celebrated, and gradually gained importance.

		She is mentioned in the Turin 'List of Kings' and is mentioned at Karnak Temple (Luxor) and Saqqara (near Cairo).
		Again the evidence is sketchy, however the general consensus is that, upon the death of her husband Queen Twosret became co-regent with the king's young son, (Ramesses-Siptah), by another of his wives, and then after his death (approximately six years later) ascended to the throne herself, proclaiming herself Pharaoh.

	Problems with Manetho's "Reign of the Gods"
		To begin with, using only eight kings (as is specified in our "fragments") we can see that in reality it is the eighth king that is missing.
		We learn also that the rulers "Thoth" and "Ma" followed this first king "Horus"; and finally of a second "Horus" (the tenth king) who closed out the "Reign of the Gods" in agreement with ancient Egyptian tradition.
		So the tradition carried down that Horus was the last of the god-kings remains intact; but the appearance of two separate kings in the list, both named "Horus," evidently triggered a simple scribal error (known as haplographic error), which lead in turn to subsequent errors in copying Manetho's original king-list.
