Narmer, the first king of Egypt’s first dynasty, was not, in fact, the first king of Egypt. What do we know about the kings that ruled before him? What evidence do we have about their existence? In this video, find out who Egypt’s earliest kings were.
ERRATA: At 7:28, I mention that no gods are mentioned as ruling Egypt in any New Kingdom King List. This may be true for official king lists, but there is a papyrus document called the Turin King List, which comes from the 19th dynasty and does indeed suggest that gods ruled before Menes. The document is in very poor condition, and there is a lot of room for interpretation, but there is enough in the fragments to tell that this is the case. This would make it the earliest known document to carry this tradition.
