 Peoples of the Sea, Immanuel Velikovsky
Within this time span I locate both the Twentieth Dynasty (the dynasty of Ramses III) and the Twenty-first Dynasty, which are conventionally placed up to eight centuries earlier; in no other part of the reconstruction has there been such a great rift with the accepted structure for the chronology of events.
With the Eighteenth Dynasty moved down the scale of time by more than five centuries, the first volume of Ages in Chaos took away one abutment from orthodox history and erected instead an abutment for the reconstruction.
With the removal of the Twentieth and Twenty-first Dynasties to the age of Persian domination over Egypt, anchoring them centuries away from their usual places, the present volume erects a second such abutment.

In the Thirtieth Dynasty the temple complex was reconstructed by King Nectanebo I (about 360 BC), who built a new and yet more massive enclosure wall.

 Twenty-second dynasty of Egypt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The kings of the Twenty-second dynasty of Egypt were a series of Meshwesh Libyans who ruled from circa 943 BC until 720 BC.
Manetho states that the dynasty originated at Bubastis, but the kings almost certainly ruled from Tanis, which was their capital and the city where their tombs have been excavated.
The so-called Twenty-third dynasty was an offshoot of this dynasty perhaps based in Upper Egypt, though there is much debate concerning this issue.

 Egypt: Hotepsekhemwy (Hetepsekhemwy), the 1st King of Egypt's 2nd Dynasty
Perhaps because it does not have the prestige of the 1st Dynasty, or the great monuments built during the 3rd Dynasty, Egypt's 2nd Dynasty seems almost an interlude.
Two of the first three kings of the dynasty may have been buried here, with the third possibly in a substructure over which Djoser's Step Pyramid was built.
Interestingly, however, seal impressions of Hotepsekhemwy were discovered in the tomb of his predecessor, Qa'a, leading the German Archaeological Institute at Cairo, the team that excavated Qa'a's tomb to believe that Qa'a was probably Hotepsekhemwy's father.

 Scarab in the Dust: Egypt in the Time of the Twenty-First Dynasty
On the conventional scheme, however, "The Twenty-first Dynasty was suppsoed to have taken over the reins of government without any foreign intervention."[21] In the 1100 B.C. period there are no candidates for this function.
On this model, as a Psusennes of the Twenty-first Dynasty, he must have been father-in-law to Osorkon III, c 670 B.C. This is in striking contrast to the conventional model, where Tjetkheperre-Psusennes must have been the last king of the Twenty-first Dynasty, with Osorkon I-Sekhemkheperre being his son-in-law.
The relative prominence of the priests of the Twenty-first Dynasty is explained by the "time of troubles" that afflicted Egypt between the murder of Ramses III (720 B.C.) and the death of his son, Ramses IV, a decade later, and the accession of Psammetich of the Twenty-sixth Dynasty 50 years on.

It is a tomb built by a grieving king of the Mughal Empire (1526-1858) in India in memory of his beloved wife.
