Document Summary
Intermediate periods : more than one ruler/ dynasty on the throne. Middle kingdom (hyksos kingdom (north), theban kingdom (middle), and kingdom of kush (south) Finally, the late period because late in egyptian history. 3rd century bce, egyptian priest manetho under order of king writes a history of egypt: divides into 31 dynasties (divisions of manetho) Earlier periods: capital cities in memphis (during early dynastic period and old kingdom) Dynasty 19-20: in the delta in per-ramses. Saite renaissance/ dynasty 26: in the delta in sais (western) The royal canon of turin: put together under the reign of ramses ii (dynasty 19) Gives names of kings in order of time period and residence place, and then gives how long each king reigned. Missing some stuff; not in good condition. Finally, gives a total of how long each dynasty was; very good record-keeping, up to the days. The abydos king list (early 19th dynasty) Shows a bias; people who made it control history.
