Abstract

The 14th Dynasty has rarely been examined in its own right, as only a small number of contemporaneous sources can be associated with it. This article investigates these sources, the later kinglists, and modern Egyptological assumptions about this dynasty. In addition to new readings and interpretations of the Royal Canon of Turin, a revised chronological positioning of the 14th Dynasty in relation to other dynasties of the Second Intermediate Period is proposed on the basis of three typological groups of scarabs.
