DAVID AND SOLOMON'S KINGDOMS: LEGEND OR HISTORY? by Gerard Gertoux

The end of the 20th dynasty is poorly determined due to an "age of rebirth" (Herihor?) starting in year 19 of Ramses XI. The Story of Wenamun, dated year 5 of Smendes90, suggests that this pharaoh ruled in parallel with Herihor, a priest king, after the death of Ramses XI. It seems that the weakening of the royal function enabled Heriror, high priest of Amon, to steal some royal prerogatives. In his account, Wenamun said that he had been sent to Palestine by Smendes (at Tanis) and his wife Tanetamon, without specifying the title of the Pharaoh, only saying that Smendes and Heriror were the "magnates of Egypt." Wenamun reminded that: I have not done to you what was done to Khaemwase's [birth name of Ramses XI] envoys when they had spent 17 years in this land. According to this last remark, year 5 refers to Smendes, successor of Ramses XI, not Heriror.
