Pharaohs Timeline -
Periods, Kingdoms and Dynasties
Egyptologists have divided the
different times into Periods, Kingdoms and Dynasties. There is some
confusion regarding dates in Egyptian history as the Egyptians had a
different method of recording dates and the Egyptian calendar was reset
to year one at the start of each Pharaoh's rule. The intermediate
periods refer to the time between the end of an old period or Kingdom to
the start of a new period or Kingdom, allowing for possible anomalies
and are detailed on the Ancient Egyptian Pharaohs Timeline. For more
