The Complete Royal Families of Ancient Egypt (The Complete Series) | On a completely different tack, I also work on naval history between the middle of the nineteenth century and the present day, having published books on German battleships of the Second Reich and heavy cruisers , plus a number of papers and reviews. Within Egyptology, my particular areas of specialisation are Egyptian dynastic history and chronology; tomb architecture; coffin and sarcophagus design; canopic equipment the containers for mummified viscera ; and the history of Egyptology, particularly in Bristol. Apart from a range of books and articles, I have a long term project to publish the coffins in British local museums - Egyptian Coffins in Provincial Collections in the United Kingdom , the preliminary results of which are being placed on-line , pending ultimate print publication. I am currently writing a series of biographical works on ancient Egyptian rulers; those on Sethy I and Rameses III have now been published, with volumes on Nefertiti, the first pharaohs and Tutankhamun in preparation. I am also working to publish the coffins and related material from the tomb of Tutankhamun. Much of this builds on the catalogue cards and photographs left behind by Howard Carter when he died in , but also includes a catalogue and study of all extant Egyptian royal coffins. Textual translations and grammatical commentaries have been prepared by Dr Bill Manley of Glasgow University; it has been much delayed by the authors' other commitments and the emerging need to do more work on the actual items in Cairo, some of which was carried out during , while I spent a semester as William K. I was elected a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London in The essential reference tool for understanding the lives of the kings, queens, princes and princesses of ancient Egypt, cutting through their complex family relationships and examining their roles and achievements. This groundbreaking book illuminates the lives of some 1, kings, queens, princes and princesses of ancient Egypt, unravelling family relationships and exploring the parts they played in politics, cultural life and religion. From the dawn of Egyptian history, the book ranges through the vast progeny of Ramesses II, and ends with the fiendishly complicated — and blood-soaked — inter-connections of the Ptolemies and Cleopatras. The authors introduce key members of the royal family in turn and assess what is known about the implications of the major titles that define them. Format: Paperback. Size: Extent: pp. The outcome of the battle was undecided, both sides claiming victory, which ultimately resulted in a peace treaty between the two nations. Ramesses II was famed for the huge number of children he sired by his various wives and concubines. The tomb he built for his sons, many of whom he outlived, in the Valley of the Kings has proven to be the largest funerary complex in Egypt. His immediate successors continued military campaigns, though an increasingly troubled court [which at one point put a usurper Amunmesse on the throne] made it increasingly difficult for a pharaoh to effectively retain control without incident. The last "great" pharaoh from the New Kingdom is widely regarded to be Ramesses III reign — BC , whose long tenure in the midst of the surrounding political chaos of the Greek Dark Ages , saw Egypt beset by foreign invaders Lybians aot the west and seafaring pirates known as the Sea Peoples , which set the stage for increasing economic difficulties and internal strife that eventually caused the collapse of the Twentieth Dynasty. He claimed that he incorporated them as subject peoples and settled them in Southern Canaan, although there is evidence that they forced their way into Canaan. Their presence in Canaan may have contributed to the formation of new states in this region such as Philistia after the collapse of the Egyptian Empire. He also fought invading Libyan tribesmen in two major campaigns in Egypt's Western Delta in his Year 6 and Year 11 respectively. Return to top. The cost of these battles gradually exhausted Egypt's treasury and contributed to the gradual decline of the Egyptian Empire in Asia. The first known labor strike in recorded history occurred during Year 29 of Ramesses III's reign, when the food rations for the Egypt's favoured and elite royal tomb-builders and artisans in the village of Deir el Medina could not be provisioned, and famine ensued. Egypt was also beset by droughts, below-normal flooding levels of the Nile, famine, civil unrest and official corruption. Smendes eventually founded the Twenty-First Dynasty at Tanis — a very important royal necropolis of the Third Intermediate Period, which contains the only known intact royal Pharaonic burials, all earlier and later tombs, including the tomb of Tutankhamun , having been entered during antiquity. The Third Intermediate Period is characterized by the slow motion fracturing of Egyptian kingship. Even during Ramesses XI's day, the Twentieth Dynasty of Egypt was losing its grip on power in the city of Thebes, whose priests were becoming increasingly powerful. But this division may have been less significant than it seems to us today, since both priests and pharaohs came from the same family. Descended from Meshwesh immigrants, originally from Libya, Shoshenq brought stability to the country that lasted well over over a century. But this kingdom quickly fragmented after Rudamun's death with the rise of local city states under petty kings such Peftjaubast of Herakleopolis , Nimlot of Hermopolis , and Ini at Thebes. The Nubian kingdom to the south took full advantage of this division and political instability. Prior to Piye's Year 20 campaign into Egypt, the previous Nubian ruler — Kashta — had already extended his kingdom's influence over Thebes when he compelled Shepenupet, the serving Divine Adoratice of Amun and Takelot III's sister, to adopt his own daughter Amenirdis, to be her successor.
