EGYPTIAN CHRONOLOGY THROUGH ASTRONOMICALLY DATED SYNCHRONISMS by Gerard Gertoux

Maare Sobekhotep IX is only attested by three scarabs and his reign is to be placed at the end of the 13th dynasty (Vandersleyen: 1995, 130). A recent study of Egyptian chronology questioned the order of the 13th Dynasty kings (obtained by Ryholt) and eliminated Sobekhotep VIII and IX because these two kings could no longer be inserted into this new chronology. This study was based mainly on two hypotheses: Dynasty 13 was followed by Dynasties 16-17 and the order of classification is defined according to the antiquity and etymology of throne names (Siesse: 2015, 75-97). The first hypothesis is false since Dynasty 16 (1572-1530) did not precede Dynasty 17 (1572-1530) but took place in parallel. The second hypothesis on the antiquity of verbs of the causative form in -re is interesting but remains hazardous, as the author of the study acknowledges. Firstly, the kings attested by inscriptions (Ryholt: 1997, 455) cannot be eliminated from the Egyptian chronology (it can be assumed that Sobekhotep IX succeeded Sobekhotep VIII).
