Egyptian Chronology

Egyptian chronology refers to the timeline of ancient Egypt's history, organizing events, rulers, and dynasties over thousands of years. It is reconstructed using historical records, inscriptions, and archaeological evidence, including king lists and monuments. The chronology helps us understand the sequence of dynasties from the Early Dynastic Period (~3100 BCE) through the Ptolemaic period (ended in 30 BCE). Scholars sometimes face challenges due to gaps or conflicting data, but overall, Egyptian chronology provides a framework to study the development of one of history's most influential civilizations.
