Dynasty 21 Tanite kings & Theban High Priests (Psusennes I, Amenemope, Siamun, Psusennes II; Pinedjem)
1043 BCE–945 BCE · Third-Intermediate
A grouped entry for the Tanite kings of Dynasty 21 and the Theban High Priests of Amun who ruled in parallel during the early Third Intermediate Period. The standout is Psusennes I, whose intact, silver-coffined burial at Tanis is one of the great treasures of Egyptian archaeology, rivalling Tutankhamun's; others include Siamun and Psusennes II, alongside the Theban Pinedjem line. All are historical, grouped here for brevity, and the north-south dual structure of king and high priest continues throughout.
