Takelot I: Encyclopedia II - Takelot I - Tomb

Evidence that the Royal Tanite tomb belonged to Takelot I was suggested long ago by the presence of grave goods found within the burial which mentioned his known parents: namely a Gold Bracelet and Alabaster Jar of Osorkon I, and a Ushabti figure of Queen Tashedkhons. In addition, a heart scarab found in the king's burial gave his name simply as "Takelot Meryamun" without the Si-Ese epithet used by Takelot II. Recent confirmation of this circumstantial evidence was published by Karl Jansen-Winkeln in 1987, whose examination of several written inscriptions on the tomb's walls proved beyond doubt that the person buried here could only ...

Takelot I: Encyclopedia II - Shoshenq II - Shoshenq II's Identity:

There is a small possibility that Shoshenq II was the son of Shoshenq I. Several bracelets from Shoshenq II's tomb mention Shoshenq I as either Hedjkheperre Setepenre Shoshenq I or Chief of the Ma--which was Shoshenq I's position before he became king. These items may be evidence of a possible filial link between the two men. Also, a forensic examination of Shoshenq II's body by Douglas Derry reveals him to be a man in his 50's when he died. Hence, Shoshenq II may have outlived Osorkon I's 35 Year reign and ruled Egypt before Takelot ...

Takelot I: Encyclopedia II - Shoshenq IV - Burial

Like Shoshenq III, Shoshenq IV was not a son of his predecessor and the exact grounds for his claim to the throne are unknown. He ruled Egypt between Shoshenq III and Pami for either 12 or 13 Years based on different Egyptologists view of his reign. According to Dodson, excavation work in the looted NRT V Tanite tomb of Shoshenq III revealed the presence of 2 sarcophagi: one inscribed for Usermaatre Setepenre Shoshenq III and the other being an anonymous sarcophagus. The unmarked sarcophagus, however, "was clearly a secondary introduction" a ...

Takelot I: Encyclopedia II - Osorkon II - Foreign policy and monumental program

Despite his astuteness in dealings with matters at home, Osorkon was forced to be more aggressive on the international scene. The growing power of Assyria meant the latter's continued meddling in the affairs of Israel and Syria – territories well within Egypt's sphere of influence. In 853 BC, Osorkon's forces, in a coalition with those of Israel and Byblos, defeated the army of Shalmaneser III at the Battle of Qarqa ...

Takelot I: Encyclopedia II - Osorkon I - Osorkon I's successor

Although Osorkon I is thought to have been directly succeeded by his son Takelot I, it is possible that another ruler, Heqakheperre Shoshenq II, intervened briefly between these two kings because Takelot I was a son of Osorkon I through Queen Tashedkhons-a minor secondary wife of this king. In contrast, Osorkon I's senior wife was Queen Maatkare, who may have been Shoshenq II's mother. However, Shoshenq II could also have been another son of Shoshenq I mummy since Shoshenq I was the only other king to be mentioned in objects from Shoshenq II ...
