Egypt
Bordered by the Mediterranean Sea on the north, the Sinai Peninsula and
the Gulf of Suez on the east, and the Lybian desert on the west, Egypt is a land
with a rich and well-recorded ancient history. Some of our knowledge of Egypts
ancient history stems from the work of the Egyptian priest Manetho (c. 270 b.c.),
who records events of 31 dynasties, beginning c. 3200 b.c. The chart which follows begins with Ahmosis I, the founder of the eighteenth dynasty. According to
the early date theory of the Exodus (adopted here), the Pharaoh of the Exodus
was probably Amenhotep II; according to the late date theory, the Pharaoh was
probably Rameses II.
