Turin King List Turin King List This article contains Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphic text. Without proper rendering support, you may see question marks, boxes, or other symbols instead of Egyptian hieroglyphs. The Turin King List, also known as the Turin Royal Canon, is an ancient Egyptian hieratic papyrus thought to date from the reign of Pharaoh Ramesses II, now in the Museo Egizio (Egyptian Museum)[1] in Turin. The papyrus is the most extensive list available of kings compiled by the ancient Egyptians, and is the basis for most chronology before the reign of Ramesses II. 1904 version of attempt to assemble parts of the Turin King list Creation and use The papyrus is believed to date from the reign of Ramesses II, during the middle of the New Kingdom, or the 19th Dynasty. The beginning and ending of the list are now lost; there is no introduction, and the list does not continue after the 19th Dynasty. The composition may thus have occurred at any subsequent time, from the reign of Ramesses II to as late as the 20th Dynasty. The papyrus lists the names of rulers, the lengths of reigns in years, with months and days for some kings. In some cases they are grouped together by family, which corresponds approximately to the dynasties of Manethoʼs book. The list includes the names of ephemeral rulers or those ruling small territories that may be unmentioned in other sources. The list also is believed to contain kings from the 15th Dynasty, the Hyksos who ruled Lower Egypt and the River Nile delta. The Hyksos rulers do not have cartouches (enclosing borders which indicate the name of a king), and a hieroglyphic sign is added to indicate that they were foreigners, although typically on King Lists foreign rulers are not listed. The papyrus was originally a tax roll, but on its back is written a list of rulers of Egypt – including mythical kings such as gods, demi-gods, and spirits, as well as human kings. That the back of an older papyrus was used may indicate that the list was not of great formal importance to the writer, although the primary function of the list is thought to have been as an administrative aid. As such, the papyrus is less likely to be biased against certain rulers and is believed to include all the kings of Egypt known to its writers up to the 19th or 20th Dynasty. Discovery and reconstruction The papyrus was found by the Italian traveler Bernardino Drovetti in 1820 at Luxor (Thebes), Egypt and was acquired in 1824 by the Egyptian Museum in Turin, Italy and was designated Papyrus Number 1874. When the box in which it had been transported to Italy was unpacked, the list had disintegrated into small fragments. Jean-Francois Champollion, examining it, could recognize only some of the larger fragments containing royal names, and produced a drawing of what he could decipher. A reconstruction of the list was created to better understand it and to aid in research. The Saxon researcher Gustav Seyffarth (1796–1885) re-examined the fragments, some only one square centimeter in size, and made a more complete reconstruction of the papyrus based only on the papyrus fibers, as he could not yet determine the meaning of the hieratic characters. Subsequent work on the fragments was done by the Munich Egyptologist Jens Peter Lauth, which largely confirmed the Seyffarth reconstruction. In 1997, prominent Egyptologist Kim Ryholt published a new and better interpretation of the list in his book, "The Political Situation in Egypt during the Second Intermediate Period c. 1800–1550 B.C." After another study of the papyrus, an updated version from Ryholt is expected. Egyptologist Donald Redford has also studied the papyrus and has noted that although many of the list's names correspond to monuments and other documents, there are some discrepancies and not all of the names correspond, questioning the absolute reliability of the document for pre-Ramesses II chronology. Despite attempts at reconstruction, approximately 50% of the papyrus remains missing. This papyrus as presently constituted is 1.7 m long and 0.41 m wide, broken into over 160 fragments. In 2009, previously unpublished fragments were discovered in the storage room of the Egyptian Museum of Turin, in good condition.[2] A new edition of the papyrus is expected. The name Hudjefa, found twice in the papyrus, is now known to have been used by the royal scribes of the Ramesside era during the 19th dynasty of ancient Egypt when the scribes compiled king lists such as the royal table of Sakkara and the royal canon of Turin and the name of a deceased pharaoh was unreadable, damaged, or completely erased. Contents of the papyrus The papyrus is divided into eleven columns, distributed as follows. The names and positions of several kings are still being disputed, since the list is so badly damaged. Column 1 — Gods of Ancient Egypt Column 2 — Gods of Ancient Egypt, spirits and mythical kings Column 3 — Rows 11-25 (Dynasties 1-2) Column 4 — Rows 1-25 (Dynasties 2-5) Column 5 — Rows 1-26 (Dynasties 6-8/9/10) Column 6 — Rows 12-25 (Dynasties 11-12) Column 7 — Rows 1-2 (Dynasties 12-13) Column 8 — Rows 1-23 (Dynasty 13) Column 9 — Rows 1-27 (Dynasty 13-14) Column 10 — Rows 1-30 (Dynasty 14) Column 11 — Rows 1-30 (Dynasties 14-17) Turin King List with 2013 corrections of positions for some fragments – table representation of rows from the original papyrus, translated into hieroglyphs These are the actual names written on the papyrus, omitting the years, summations and headings: Second Column Row Common name Name in list Transliteration Manuel de Codage 11 Menes Meni mni <-Y5kN35-M17-> 12 Hor-Aha Teti ttij <-X1kX1-M17-Z4-> 13 Djer Iti, Ita iti <-M17-X1-//-G7-> 15 Djet Itui itjwi <-//-G4#12-M17-> 16 Den Qenti qntj <-Aa8kX1*Z4-> <-U7kD21-U17- 17 Anedjib Merbiapen mr-biA-pn Q3kN35-//-> <-S29-G17-S29- 18 Semerkhet Semsem smsm G17-> <-//-D58-V28-G7- 19 Qa'a (Qe)beh qbH > <-//-G30-R4kQ3- 20 Hotepsekhemwy Baunetjer bAw-nTr G7-> <-//-E2- 21 Nebre Kakau kA-kAw D52kZ1*Z1*Z1-G7-> <-//-R8-D21kN35- 22 Nynetjer Banetjer bA-nTr G7-> 23 Wadjnes ..s ..s <-//-//-S29-G7-> 24 Senedj Sened.. snDi <-G54-//-> 25 Neferkara I Neferka nfr-kA <-O29-D28-Z1-> Third Column Row Common name Name in list Transliteration Manuel de Codage <-F35-D28-Z1- 2 Neferkasokar Neferkasokar nfr-kA-skr O34kV31kD21-Z5- G7-> <-D58-D58-N21- 3 Khasekhemwy Bebti bbtj G7-> 4 Nebka Nebka nbkA <-V30-D28-Z1-> <-D45kD21- 5 Djoser Djoser..it Dsr..it M17-.:X1#12-G7-> <-D45kD21-X1kZ4- 6 Sekhemkhet Djoserti Dsrti G7-> 7 Hudjefa II Hudjefa HwDfA <-O34-I10-S29-> <-V28-Z5-A25-//- 8 Huni Huni Hwni G7-> <-S29-F35-I9kD21- 9 Sneferu Senefer snfr G7-> 10 Khufu — — //-// 11 Djedefre — — <-//-//-G7-> <-//-N28-D36-//- 12 Khafre ..kha.. ..xa..

  • Moses and the Exodus: What Evidence?
    Moses and the Exodus: what evidence? Abstract. To be or not to be is a crucial question regarding Moses as well as the Exodus because, according to the Bible, the character related to that famous event forms the basis of the Passover which meant the Promised Land for Jews and later the Paradise for Christians. However, according to most Egyptologists, there is absolutely no evidence of Moses and the Exodus in Egyptian documents, which leads them to conclude that the whole biblical story is a myth written for gullible people. Ironically, if one considers that “truth” must be based on two pillars: an accurate chronology anchored on absolute dates (Herodotus’ principle) and reliable documents coming from critical editions (Thucydides’ principle), that implies an amazing conclusion: those who believe Egyptologists are actually the real gullible ones. According to Egyptian accounts the last king of the XVth dynasty, named Apopi, “very pretty” in Hebrew that is Moses’ birth name (Ex 2:2), reigned 40 years in Egypt from 1613 to 1573 BCE, then 40 years later he met Seqenenre Taa the last pharaoh of the XVIIth dynasty and gave him an unspecified disturbing message. The eldest son of Seqenenre Taa, Ahmose Sapaïr, who was crown prince died in a dramatic and unexplained way shortly before his father. Seqenenre Taa died in May 1533 BCE, after 11 years of reign, in dramatic and unclear circumstances. The state of his mummy proves, however, that his body received severe injuries, in agreement with Psalms 136:15, and remained abandoned for several days before being mummified.

  • Ancient Egyptian Chronology and the Book of Genesis
    Answers Research Journal 4 (2011):127–159. www.answersingenesis.org/arj/v4/ancient-egyptian-chronology-genesis.pdf Ancient Egyptian Chronology and the Book of Genesis Matt McClellan, [email protected] Abstract One of the most popular topics among young earth creationists and apologists is the relationship of the Bible with Ancient Egyptian chronology. Whether it concerns who the pharaoh of the Exodus was, the background of Joseph, or the identity of Shishak, many Christians (and non-Christians) have wondered how these two topics fit together. This paper deals with the question, “How does ancient Egyptian chronology correlate with the book of Genesis?” In answering this question it begins with an analysis of every Egyptian dynasty starting with the 12th Dynasty (this is where David Down places Moses) and goes back all the way to the so called “Dynasty 0.” After all the data is presented, this paper will look at the different possibilities that can be constructed concerning how long each of these dynasties lasted and how they relate to the biblical dates of the Great Flood, the Tower of Babel, and the Patriarchs. Keywords: Egypt, pharaoh, Patriarchs, chronology, Abraham, Joseph Introduction Kingdom) need to be revised. This is important During the past century some scholars have when considering the relationship between Egyptian proposed new ways of dating the events of ancient history and the Tower of Babel. The traditional dating history before c. 700 BC.1 In 1991 a book entitled of Ancient Egyptian chronology places its earliest Centuries of Darkness by Peter James and four of dynasties before the biblical dates of the Flood and his colleagues shook the very foundations of ancient confusion of the languages at Babel.

    HYKSOS, EGIPCIOS, NUBIOS: ALGUNAS CONSIDERACIONES SOBRE EL I1 PE~ODOINTERMEDIO Y LA CONVIVENCIA ENTRE LOS DISTINTOS GRUPOS ETNICOS Inmaculada Vivas SBinz Universidad de AlcalB de Henares ABSTRACT This article reviews some questions of the political and social history of the the Second Intermediate Period. The first part is based on recent discussion about the terminology related to the period, and the convenience or unconvenience of using certain terms in future investigations. The second part concerns the relationships among the dlflerent ethnic groups living in Egypt at that time, and the process of acculturation of the Hyksos in Egypt. An interesting hypotheses about king Nehesy is analysed, which proposes the existence of a dynastic marriage between a Nubian queen and a king of the XIVth Dynasty, both being the suppoused parents of Nehesy. I reject this hypotheses on the basis of archaedogical and epigraphical sources. The true origin of Nehesy remains a moot point, being still d~ficultto explain why this king had a name meaning "the Nubian". -Los estudios sobre el I1 Periodo Intermedio egipcio se remontan a1 siglo pasado', pero es desde hace apenas unas dCcadas cuando se ha sentido la necesidad de definir ese tCrmino. Los primeros trabajos sobre el tema eran breves anilisis sobre el final del Reino Medio y la llegada de 10s hyksos, sobre Cstos y su relaci6n con Israel, o la posible ubicaci6n de Avaris y el proceso de expulsi6n de 10s hyksos.

    THE Gil OF THE PIT IN THE Light of the Ancient Monuments. HENRY ALEXANDER WHITE, M. A., Pli. D., D. D. Professor of History in the Washington and Lee University, Lexington, Virginia. RICHMOND, VA.: B. F. Johnson Publishing Company. 1894. Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1894, by HENRY ALEXANDER WHITE, In the office of the Librarian of Congress at Washington. This Volume is Dedicated TO My Wife. ;; PREFACE. THE greater part of this volume, in the form of lectures, has been given, during several sessions, to my class in Bible History. The reader of these lectures should keep constantly before his eyes the open pages of the sacred narrative itself. It is hoped that they may be found available in connection with the study of the English Bible as a text- book of history in our colleges and universities. The best literature available on the various subjects has been con- sulted. Reference to some of these authorities has been made in the foot-notes. Special acknowledgment must be rendered, in the line of Egyptian and Babylonian history to Brugsch's Egypt Under the Pharaohs (Scribner's) ; Renouf's Religion of Ancient Egypt; Budge's Dwellers on the Nile ; Rawlinson's Ancient Egypt ; his Great Monarchies, and his Origin of Nations ; Wilkinson's Ancient Egyptians ; Kenrick's Egypt the publications of Ebers ; Fergusson on Egyptian Architecture ; Daw- son's Egypt and Syria; Smith's Ancient History of the East; Sayce's Ancient Empires of the East ; his Fresh Light from the Ancient Monu- ments, and his Assyria, its Princes, Priests and People ; Budge's Baby- lonian Life and History ; Layard's Nineveh and Babylon ; Keary's Dawn of History, and the various encyclopedias and publications of the Pales- tine and Egyptian Exploration Funds.

  • Historiografski Problemi Kronologije Staroegipatske Povijesti U Hrvatskim Povijesnim Znanostima I Nastavi Povijesti
    Mladen Tomorad Filozofski fakultet u Zagrebu Pregledni članak UDK: 930.24(32):930(497.5) Historiografski problemi kronologije staroegipatske povijesti u hrvatskim povijesnim znanostima i nastavi povijesti U članku autor raspravlja različite probleme vezane uz upotrebu staroegipatske kro- nologije u povijesnim znanostima. Posebno se analizira pojam datacija te daje pregled raznih metoda vremenskog određenja za arheološke nalaze, staroegipatske kronologije i računanje vremena kod starih Egipćana, podjela na dinastije te povijesnih izvora na kojima se sama kronologija zasniva. U posebnom poglavlju autor daje pregled upo- trebe raznih kronologija u povijesnim znanostima u Hrvatskoj od sredine 19. stoljeća do danas te njene upotrebe u udžbenicima povijesti. U završnom dijelu članka autor donosi novu kronologiju staroegipatske povijesti koja se zasniva na rezultatima naj- novijih istraživanja te za koju smatra da bi se trebala isključivo upotrebljavati u svim budućim povijesnim djelima. Ključne riječi: datacija, računanje vremena, kronologija, metode datiranja, Stari Egipat, faraon, dinastija, povijesni izvori, kronološke tablice 1. Datacija i metode datiranja arheoloških ostataka Svaka osoba koja se bavila izučavanjem arheološke građe zna da je jedan od najte- žih koraka prilikom znanstvene analize i obrade svakog predmeta odrediti njegovu starost. To je osobito teško u slučajevima naših vrlo starih predmeta koji se čuvaju u pojedinim muzejskim zbirkama jer je kontekst njihova nalaza najčešće nepoznat te su oni u razne institucije često stigli putem brojnih posrednika. Što je datacija? Pojam datacija (lat. datatio) znači da se svaki predmet mora sta- viti u neki vremenski kontekst, odrediti njegova starost, odnosno staviti ga u neke vremenske granice. Samo određenje starosti nalaza prilikom arheoloških iskapanja može biti relativno i apsolutno.

KAROL MYŚLIWIEC INSTITUTE OF ARCHAEOLOGY FACULTY OF HISTORY WARSAW UNIVERSITY 2003 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This work would have never appeared without help, support, advice and kindness of many people. I would like to express my sincerest thanks to: Professor Karol Myśliwiec, the supervisor of this thesis, for his incredible patience. Professor Zbigniew Szafrański, my first teacher of Egyptian archaeology and subsequently my boss at Deir el-Bahari, colleague and friend. It was his attitude towards science that influenced my decision to become an Egyptologist. Professor Lech Krzyżaniak, who offered to me really enormous possibilities of work in Poznań and helped me to survive during difficult years. It is due to him I have finished my thesis at last; he asked me about it every time he saw me. Professor Dietrich Wildung who encouraged me and kindly opened for me the inventories and photographic archives of the Ägyptisches Museum und Papyrussammlung, and Dr. Karla Kroeper who enabled my work in Berlin in perfect conditions. Professors and colleagues who offered to me their knowledge, unpublished material, and helped me in various ways. Many scholars contributed to this work, sometimes unconsciously, and I owe to them much, albeit all the mistakes and misinterpretations are certainly by myself. Let me list them in an alphabetical order, pleno titulo: Hartwig
