Ancient Egyptian king list from the 19th dynasty
The start of the king list, showing Seti and his son Ramesses II on the way to making an offering to Ptah -Seker -Osiris , on behalf of their 72 ancestors: the contents of the king list. Ramesses is depicted holding censers .
The Abydos King List , also known as the Abydos Table , is a list of the names of 76 kings of ancient Egypt , found on a wall of the Temple of Seti I at Abydos, Egypt . It consists of three rows of 38 cartouches (borders enclosing the name of a king) in each row. The upper two rows contain names of the kings, while the third row merely repeats Seti I's throne name and nomen .
Besides providing the order of the Old Kingdom kings, it is the sole source to date of the names of many of the kings of the Seventh and Eighth Dynasties, so the list is valued greatly for that reason.
This list omits the names of many earlier pharaohs who were apparently considered illegitimate — those were Mentuhotep I , Intef I , Intef II , Intef III , Mentuhotep IV , Sobekneferu , pharaohs of the Ninth Dynasty , pharaohs of the Tenth Dynasty , the Hyksos , pharaohs of the Second Intermediate Period , Hatshepsut , Akhenaten , Smenkhkare , Neferneferuaten , Tutankhamen , and Ay .
